Hi,

I have tried your latest Snapshot and have a problem using the
SIS-DRI-Driver at WineX if it comes to Direct3D games OpenGL games work
perfect also DirectDraw...
BUT as said Direct3D games lock-up (only mouse works still) before I get
shown anything  the same is for the videos in the game this all worked
perfect with the old SIS-Driver  but there I had the problem that in any
game  if DRI was used - I got a lock-up, even TuxRacers

I'm having a hard time parsing you here.  So with the old driver all
games caused a lockup but with the new driver only D3D games in WineX
do?

Andreas asked me privately about this a couple of times, and I think the problem he's having boils down to


- WarCraft III (via WineX) is "too dark", possibly meaning the the game playfield area is all black while the game controls and status displays still display OK (is WarCraft III really using DirectX or Direct3D?)

- he had lockups with the old driver (which I personally experienced only a very few times)

He has never told me wether or not native DRI applications work for him the current driver (apart from the gfxgears statement below).

One other thing: with glxinfo I got about 375 FPS with the old driver with
the new I get around 200FPS  is it still that fast as the old  but only
glxinfo detects it wrong?.


I don't remember at this point any decisions I made that would cause
significant slowdowns.  (I assume you are talking about glxgears here)

I have received reports telling my it's even faster with the new driver. (I don't have a 630 to test this at the moment)
