Portal (wine) graphical errors
Rustybolts Dec 19, 2010
Well portal runs and appears to run very nice unfortunately the graphics errors I'm getting will stop me from playing this game. Portal is available as a free download on Steam, if you want to try it out.

To get it to work i changed the launch properties of the game.

Wine and the above game runs much better now i have a new laptop no graphical errors, text when computer speaks is garbled thats about all that is wrong.

That will be the nvidia graphics at work as intel suck :)

Heh, give Intel some credit, they are actually putting quite a bit of work into improving their Linux drivers. Still does not change the limited hardware specs though. ;)

Your right Hamish the drivers on my old laptop were pretty good for the intel, It however was a cheaper card which was not meant for gaming, so on that regard it surprised me on a daily basis
