I compiled Wine 0.9.10 from source a month back and put it into my Fedora Core 5 system, and in no time Counter Strike 1.6, Counter Strike Condition Zero and Max Payne were running. The only problem I had was with the frame-rate, and I still have it. It is funny since Arjun is having an amazing frame-rate on his Ubuntu system and although his 855GME motherboard allows him 333MHz RAM, while I am limited to 266MHz on my 855GM the difference in frame rates is a bit too much in my opinion. Moreover the problem is not limited to Wine only. I notice the difference when laying TORCS and Qauke III: Arena (native port) too.

I am continuing my search for a solution to this problem and have already recompiled my kernel half a dozen times as a result of it. At the cost of sounding stupid, but I must say I have been recompiling my kernel atleast once a day to try out the various configurations of the Intel graphics drivers given in the 2.6.16 vanilla kernel.

In the meantime if anyone has any tit bits of information to help, it would be highly appreciated.
