What works
Playing Game, High Quality models and textures, runs fine at full resolution(1366 x 764) great framerates
What does not
Full HDR makes game extremely choppy, slow the first 30 seconds of gameplay, mass physics and lighting effects can make game crash(just the game, nothing else) you can avoid this by not looking directly at whatever is happening for a long time(note that this is not much of an issue)

Additional Comments
Gameplay almost as smooth as win7, the game is quite addicting under wine. Ubuntu 9.10 RC 32-bit AMD Turion X2 2.0 GHz Integrated ATI Radeon HD 3100(running with fglrx and pixel shader on)
