World of Warcraft - Glitch every 3-5 sec

[Jepperen]

Hey

I read this throubleshooting guide and found that my problem is this:

Glitch every 3-5 sec
If you see a noticeable graphical studder every 3 to 5 seconds or so for this you need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add something like:

Option "UseFastTLS" "2"

to the Video card "Device" Section. This of course is normally a problem with the OSS (open source software) Drivers for ATi cards.

but its not working. Where in the xorg.conf file should i place the line:

Option "UseFastTLS" "2"

?

PS. My videocard is a Mobile ATI X1600

anyone?

Bump again... come on guys, someone must know the answer.

I put the line under Video card device, but it doesnt help, wow still glitch every 1 second

Which version of wine are you using? And under what version of ubuntu?

[Jepperen]

Wine 1.0 and Ubuntu 8.04 + all updates offered via auto update

i have the same problem, disabling certian wow addons seems to help a bit (recount especially) but it does not completely stop it

[Jepperen]

yeah that helped a little, but as you wrote, not much. Isnt there someone who have the answer for this?

Section "Device"
Identifier "aticonfig-Device[0]-0"
Driver "fglrx"
Option "UseFastTLS" "2"

It goes beneath the 'fglrx' line. If your driver is not fglrx then you're not running the AMD Restricted driver.


If you'd scrolled up a few lines in the guide you'd have seen this example config

Section "Device"
Identifier "aticonfig-Device[0]"
Driver "fglrx"
Option "Capabilities" "0x00000800"
Option "UseFastTLS" "off"
Option "KernelModuleParm" "locked-userpages=0"
