This page is telling you about the problems I have playing games on Ubuntu or with other software. Please note that your experience may differ to mine. This page will be updated constantly with PROBLEMS and SOLUTIONS
Computer Specs:
CPU: AMD Athlon x2 255 3.1GHz/2MB/2000HT
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-MA78LMT-S2 with USB 3x, IGPU AMD Radeon HD 3000,PCI-E 2.0 M-ATX, SATA II
RAM: 8GB DDR3 1600MHz (2X4GB) Low Profile 1.5v
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 7770 1GB OC Edition 1GHz Core 1GHz Mem PCI-E 3.0
HDD: 500GB WD Caviar Blue SATA III 7200.02 RPM
PSU: Aerocool Aquillo 500W PSU

GPU Driver: AMD Catalyst 13.04 proprietary drivers.
=======================================================================
Problem: I noticed for me that my copy of Left 4 Dead 2 has smooth frame rates even under heavy load but sometimes when I start the game all I get is lag and I have to relaunch the game. Also the game sometimes (more none than some) slows for a split second as if the HDD is playing catch up.
Resolution 720p, vsync disabled in Control Center and vsync enabled in game or frame rates go wild!
Solution: None yet, still working on that.
===============================
Problem: All native Ubuntu screen recorders video is nothing but a black screen. Trying to play FULLSCREEN OpenGL games have this problem, run Minecraft in a window and it is fine.
Tried multiple capture programs with same result.
Solution: I will try to run games in a window and see if it improves.
===============================
Problem: Ubuntu Builder fails to launch at all. Probably not supported in 13.4 as of yet
Solution: None...
===============================
Problem: FRAPS fails to run under WINE. Obviously because it is meant for Windows only but someone managed to run it...
Solution: Find a native Ubuntu screen recorder.
