i was trying to run a game in gnome through wine and it worked but was terribly slow in some parts, seeing my old-ish computer i have gnome being to good for this game (i love gnome anyway) and my computer being too old(game runs fine in XP) so i tried to run the game in kde but it failed, os i tried to run it in xfce but it failed, so i tried to run it in open box but it failed, so i tried to run it in fluxbox, and guess what it failed. so i was wondering if there was something i was doing wrong to run the game.
iv been using
code:
wine /home/MYUSERNAME/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Microsoft\ Games/Halo\ Custom\ Edition/haloce.exe
i don't think it is wine because i downloaded it yesterday, i don't think it is linux because i downloaded it yesterday, and updated today, i don't think it is haloce.exe because i updated it yesterday. i think it is a problem that i installed haloce through wine in gnome and not any of the others. any help would be appreciated.
P.S. its not only haloce it is also any other game i try to run. (StarWars: battle grounds, age of empires, etc.)
