I would recommend you to hardcode values specific for your card at this point in your own wined3d version. Right now we estimate all info at Wine startup based on GL information. In case of cards which we don't know even from other vendors we also report Nvidia. The physx/cuda libraries require proper nvidia information in wined3d but this can't be solved properly at this point. We also need the proper pci ids and amount of video memory among other things. I'm working on a solution but this needs some changes in wine's display driver to return this info from extensions like Nvidia's NV-CONTROL. In case of NV-CONTROL I have requested some additional functionality and once that is there I will fix this once and for all. Until then I would recommend using your private wined3d patch as it can do more bad than good for most users. Roderick -- Psssst! Schon vom neuen GMX MultiMessenger gehört?
