You still messing with that issue?

Using wine?
Create a txt (settings.txt) file in fx your home folder containing this:
Code:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\X11 Driver]
"ClientSideWithRender"="N"

Go to a terminal window and write:
Code:

regedit settings.txt

Remember to reboot your system after installing the driver.

Maybe that will help? What happens when you did that?

Also, you can manually edit the file:
http://www.codeweavers.com/support/docs/wine-user/registry

So, you open ~/.wine/user.reg and add to the bottome of the file:

[Software\\Wine\\X11 Driver] 1236900048
"ClientSideWithRender"="N"

The only bit that I'm not sure of is the '1236900048' value. That's what
I get on this system when I 'regedit settings.txt', but on another
system it is '1236904239'. You can try leaving off the '123...' and see
if it gives you a workable enough view that you can then run 'regedit'
and edit from there.
