Hello, everybody.

Here is my trouble. I'm running a game (DoW : DC) on my machine using wine(v.9.49, Kubuntu v.7.04) When I set all graphical options to a maximum it causes some lags (like when options are too high), but when I set them all on minimum it doesn't help. These lags are not too big, but annoying.

NOTE: I don't play over an Internet or LAN - only local campaigns.

Where to dig?:confused:
