- A fast graphic card. Something like nVidia GTX2xx/4xx/5xx. The game will probably not work with AMD card
- A fast Linux distro. Something like Gentoo or Arch Linux. You can run it on some slower user friendly distro like Ubuntu, Fedora... but you will have low fps and it will be hard to play it.
- Some free time

Game not recognizing GPU or OpenGL, Wine Debugging glitches out securom
by Richard Gionfriddo on Tuesday June 5th 2012, 6:03
I get the following message when launching in the terminal:
Direct3d9 not available without OpenGL
Direct3d10 not available without OpenGL
Direct3d9 not available without OpenGL
also, debugging trips a security module of securom that is aimed at SoftICE, so I have to put "WINEDEBUG=-all", or else a securom message pops up, stating error message 3000, followed by the program terminating.
I am running with a GTX 560 Ti, AMD Phenom II 965, 16 GB of DDR3 1333, and Ubuntu 12.04 running LXDE and Wine 1.5 beta. Games such as Counter-Strike: Source, GuildWars 2, Live For Speed, and Unreal Tournament 3: Black all run fine, with ample FPS. Same with native Linux/GL programs like Savage 2 and OpenArena. I followed the instructions listed here.
