Since more than one year I play sucessfully EVE Online with Ubuntu 12.04 and WINE. The only difference compared with windows is, that the client freezes sometimes before going to warp or before falling out of the warp for about 1-2 seconds. I tried to compile wine from source and the freeze was about half as long, but it still persisted. Now I have a new computer with better hardware, but the problem is still present.
The game almost never crashes completly. It runs very stable even in big fights with nealy 2000 players at one place. In this situation there is additional lag and freeze. But the problem I describe happens even when you are alone in the system. |

I would recommend you blow away all of your settings and reinstall from scratch. It shouldn't be that painful, hopefully. If you are doing home directory encryption, this can sometimes cause problems when jumping between systems if your system is overloaded.
Putting your eve install on an encrypted partition might be the key though. |

Starting EVE with a higher priority with nice -19 seems to help a little bit. The freeze ist still there, but shorter.
#!/bin/bash nice -19 wine explorer /desktop=eveA,1280x1024 "C:\EVE\bin\ExeFile.exe" & nice -19 wine explorer /desktop=eveB,1280x1024 "C:\EVE\bin\ExeFile.exe" & |

I don't know if I have this, you could try mounting your cache dir as tmpfs and see if it helps. It's a good idea anyway because it makes some things more snappy. |

Now I compiled Wine from source with CFLAGS="-O3 -march=native" and things seem to be better with Ubuntu 12.04:
sudo apt-get remove wine1.7 sudo echo "SET CFLAGS -O3 -march=native" > /etc/dpkg/buildflags.conf mkdir wine_build && cd wine_build sudo apt-get build-dep wine1.7 sudo apt-get --build source wine1.7
(maybe install this missing depency of wine1.7 386)
sudo dpkg -i wine*.deb
For me it only compiled with nvidia* temporary removed and xserver-xorg-video-nouveau installed.

Would you say that the -O3 really makes things better over -O2, or do you think that it's actually just the -march=native? I'm asking, because for most things -O2 is considered to be the way to go. |
