Hello list, I have been trying to play some games using wine: Counterstrike, Broodwar and Zap (www.opentnl.org) but i've been having some problems. I cant run them in full screen is the first. I think this is because i dont have de XFree86 DGA extension. I am pretty puzzled that i found almost nothing when searching info on the DGA extension as i have the impresion that it's important for aplications to be able to use the entire screen. I use freebsd as a workstation so security is not sole concern. I looked in the XFree86 port Makefile but i did not find any way to compile the DGA extension in my X server. The second problem that i had is more wine related. In all of the 3 games i mentioned i was unable to connect to any network games or host any games that other could see. I posted these problems on the wine mailing list too but it seems that not many freebsd people use wine or play games. This is odd as from what i heard freebsd's power is in it's speed, something that i noticed for my self by using it for desktop aplications. -------------------------------- Radu Molnar Babes-Bolyai Comunication Center --------------------------------
