New to Linux (finally broke the windows addiction...sorta) I have UBUNTO 8.04 and tried the linux client w/cedega. In station my fps were about 40 or so, but he station was rendered very very badly. vertical bars everywhere... undocked fps were 4-6 but other than the station rendering everything appeared to be fine except he **** poor fps so decided to try wine. First issue I had was the EULA screen appearing blank. searching for 4 hours here finally found me the install arial.ttf bit. did that.. low and behold the EULA appeared! Yay! Log into the game running premium graphics and what do I see... 1/2 of my ship, bits and pieces of the station, and a lot of odd effects (i'm not a techno wiz so bear with my descriptions eh? lol). I decided to try standard graphics and everything looks and runs fine.... so far. I have an amd athalon 2gig based system. nvidia 7600gt vid card(512 meg). 1.5 gigs ram. onboard VIA sound. I can deal with standard graphics but... I can't seem to get wine to run multiple eve clients, anyone willing to point me in that direction? Remember. I am TOTALLY new to Linux and wine other than very minor messing around with REDHAT a few years ago. Consider me a total Linux Newb (you would be 100% correct) Storm In EVE, your only friend is your ship and it's weapons. All others are the enemy!

I just ordered a new ASUS-Mothder board and processor, NVIDIA 9500 GT Vid card, water cooling system and 4 gigs of ram (two came with the system, I am adding 2 more gigs to top it off) to upgrade my system. I'll be going from the 7600 to a 9500 in a few days. Once I have it installed and get everything running again, then hopefully the 9500 will fix the premium graphics issue. In the mean time, I managed to get whine to work real well with EVE. Still no premium Graphics, and I can't seem to run two clients w/o a massive system crash (processor maxes out, memory and swap goes through the roof and very shortly after UBUNTU drops like it was pole-axed by a 350lb guy with a bad attitude.)

BUCU, thanks for the information. Went with Liquid cooling for the extra protection when I overclock those processors. Storm In EVE, your only friend is your ship and it's weapons.
