Wine has seen gradual improvements in its support for games and game performance over the year. This talk gives an overview over the past changes, upcoming work as well as the opportunities and problems of the Direct3D9 implementation in Mesa.

Last year I gave a presentation about the 3D performance of Wine and various GPU drivers. This talk will review the changes made to Wine and Mesa and their performance improvements.

A comparison of the capabilities, stability and performance of 3D drivers for Linux, Windows and OS X.

Recently announced Linux game ports and year-long advancements in Wine improve the prospects of Linux as a gaming platform. With this development the capabilities of 3D drivers on Linux comes under scrutiny. This talk compares the capabilities, stability and performance of open source and proprietary Linux drivers to their counterparts on the Windows and OS X platforms.
