gamemode helps but CPU lag is still there in big enough to make it unplayable (decreased spikes from 3 sec to 1 sec) but PoE works well with Steam (i get the same performance in Steam is I had before with 6.3 staging)

Re: 21.1 cinn How install older version of wine

as i wrote above, you need to install it system wide first by the following command in terminal

sudo wget http://winetricks.org/winetricks -O /usr/bin/winetricks
sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/winetricks

Re: 21.1 cinn How install older version of wine

first you would add the latest winetricks to the system (you only need to do it once, the Ubuntu ppa is out of date since forever and no one knows why they don't update it, same as the stable version for wine in Ubuntu is 3.0) sudo wget http://winetricks.org/winetricks -O /usr/bin/winetricks sudo ch...
