Just tested this as well, jumped trough a few systems and did a small drone complex.
Seems to run a bit faster than cedega and also more stable (or i just were lucky this time), when clicking "quit game" the client crashes and changes to the ui etc wont be saved.
Some of the bugs from cedega are there as well, for example the locked targets list being stuck in the top left corner but other than that it was running rather nicely.
Settings: 1920x1200 fullscreen, 16 bit color depth, sound disabled all premium options disabled.

Still no crashes, running 2 clients works fine (i have to use wineprefix with 2 different directories but that might be because i run it in virtual desktop mode).
The third client has rather crappy performance but works as well.
The issue with settings not being saved when quitting the game can be circumvented by closing the game with the "x" button in the window title if you are running it in windowed or virtual desktop mode.

Laptop with
Intel Dual Core 2,33 GHz
2GB Ram
Geforce 7950 GTX
Running Ubuntu 7.10, wine config is pretty much the default settings.
So far this is much better than the cedega junk ^^

windows client with the premium graphics installed (but disabled after starting the client), if you didnt install the premium content then try that.

Just moved one of my chars out of empire and had the frame drop issue there too after jumping, no more problems once i entered 0.0.
My guess is that this is related to the concord billboards or faction/concord ships at the gates.

EVE trys to resolve "www.eve-online.com" at start up to get some http stuff from there, the domain has several ip addresse so just blocking one address wont work all the time.
You can block www.eve-online.com using the host file and it will work, but you wont be able to access the website then either.
Ideally you would find a way to only block wine from accessing it.

Ok after doing some more tests it seems there still is a drop in FPS after a session change, I noticed it after jumping or docking in a station.
regedit and poke around the software/wine/Direct3D area for the the offscreenrendering setting, if it's pbuffer set to fbo that fixed the hooge frame drop for me.
Did you test this in empire? even with fbo buffer i had the frame drops there.

I just compied/patched wine-git last night. eve starts..but I'm having a problem. The eula acceptance window comes..with no text and i'm not able to scroll down so that I accept it..any hints for me?
I'm using a new wineprefix just for this.
Can anyone help me?
I've disabled premium graphs/shadows etc...the same thing happens
Did you install the arial fonts? not sure if their even needed anymore but worth a try ^^
Other option would be to change the prefs.ini in ~./wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/< username >/Local Settings/Application Data/CCP/EVE/settings and add "eulaagreed=-1162749333" in there.
I guess the number is some timestamp that has to be older than your current system time or so ^^

Try adding "87.237.39.200 localhost" to your hosts file.
EVE downloads data for the billboards from a webserver, that is one of the IP's, im not sure yet if there are others.
Once blocked there are no more slowdowns ^^

Because it loads images to display on the billboard ^^

I am trying to get Eve working in wine. I have checked out the latest wine from git and applied the patch. I have managed to install Eve using wine but when I run it, I get the splash screen for about 15 seconds then a crash:
paladine@mail:~/eve-online/c_drive/Program Files/CCP/EVE$ wine eve.exe

paladine@mail:~/eve-online/c_drive/Program Files/CCP/EVE$
I have also added the IP mentioned earlier in this thread to my hosts file pointing to localhost.
I am completely new to wine, I have been using cedega for 2 years so I have neverbothered with Wine before now.
Any help appreciated
Suki
Did you install the premium patch? if so something might have went wrong with the .diff patch, check the wine source files if the bitflips worked ^^

Normally after patching you should be done.
Check dlls/kernel32/sync.c somewhere around line 1913 you should fine the BindIoCompletionCallback function, the return variable should be set to "TRUE"
/******************************************************************************
*BindIoCompletionCallback (KERNEL32.@)
*/
BOOL WINAPI BindIoCompletionCallback( HANDLE FileHandle, LPOVERLAPPED_COMPLETION_ROUTINE Function, ULONG Flags)
{
FIXME("%p, %p, %d, stub!\n", FileHandle, Function, Flags);
SetLastError(ERROR_CALL_NOT_IMPLEMENTED);
return TRUE;
}
If that is correct try adding "www.eve-online.com 127.0.0.1" to your hosts file instead of only the ip.

Install the arial font to wine and once eve started open the settings and disable premium contents in the graphics options, then restart and see if its any better.
The messages about software rendering being used shouldnt matter btw, i get those too ^^

for the prefs.ini
voiceenabled=0
audio=0
Other than that i can only suggest fiddling with some of the wine settings in regedit to see if it helps.
There are more font files than just arial.ttf btw but im not sure if their actually needed but you could try ^^
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/corefonts/arial32.exe?modtime=1029369600&big_mirror=0
Run the file in wine and it should install all which are required (or not) ^^

Try it with '87.237.39.200 work_you_damn_thing' :P
Since that host doesnt exist that should get you the same result as localhost would without a webserver ^^

So running the windows client through wine you guys aren't getting the frequent crashes like with the official client? Or maybe you're not getting those either way?
With premium content disabled i didnt have a single crash yet.

Did you compile wine with the BindIo patch? if not do that and your fps drop issue should be solved ^^
Originally by: Iz Djiin
Good news: there is now a patch (developed by aturkin and stefand from #winehackers@FreeNode) to provide support for the deadly BindIoCompletionCallback.
It is still being tested and is not yet included in wine-git. However I tested it - actually I'm running it now, and it works just great.
With this patch, no more IP/host blacklisting (or resolv.conf hack) needed, Eve runs smoothly, you get the news (login screen and stargates), the ingame browser is working and no more FPS drops after you jumped.
In other words, it's Eve as it should be! 
You can download it here.
Hope you will enjoy it as much as I have...
INSTALL NOTES:
This patch should be applied on a fresh wine-git snapshot.
If you previously patched wine-git with Elf Trinity patch, first reverse-patch it (from the wine-git directory):
$ patch -R -p1 < /path/to/elf/trinity.diff
Then you can do as though you had a fresh wine-git snapshot and apply the new patch:
$ patch -p1 < /path/to/0001-implement-BindIoCompletionCallback.patch
Finally run:
$ make
And install it as usual (as root)...
# make install

Classic version works fine with standard wine .52, you just need to install the Arial fonts.
