The patch to games/linux-nwnclient does work. When you commit it, would
you also apply the following patch which helps a bit? :) I think it
has been broken since March, but I just noticed.
Two things I have noticed in regard to this port, the Nvidia driver and
Fedora 8 or 10 as base:
1. Performance is poor until you change the resolution. It does not
matter what the starting resolution or the changed resolution is.
Changing back to the starting resolution keeps the good performance.
This is very odd.
2. The game core dumps upon exit, but I have not had time to look into
this.
