Wine 1.3.21 has been released... So I downloaded source and tried compiling it. After some "segfault" errors I understood that extreme overclocking (Processor: 2660 -> 3900 MHz, RAM(DDR2): 333 MHz 6-6-6-18 -> 300 MHz 4-4-4-12) makes my machine VERY unstable. And something happened to custom kernel too... now there is Ubuntu's default 2.6.38-9-generic kernel and my machine has default settings.

Well, after all, I compiled new version, and, what my test showed: first of all, there is no jumping cursor after spinners now! Bug with video mem lack crashes hasn't returned, and that's awesome too. Baspar, could you please check new Wine on your machine, maybe bugs and errors you were talking about in .16-.20 were fixed.

ATI catalyst blob is preety laggy. I don't know how to play osu with it. I have ~45gb of osu maps and when i choose map it runs 20 fps only, while on 9600gt was 60-70 fps. And there are some in-game lags which drives me crazy too.

I have artifacts both in osu and in OS/browser!

What kind of video card? Which driver? When you run the Wine do not need to use the sudo.

That "fixme" is because of dotnet. But not appearing osu-window clearly shows that it is video-driver error.

Rukarioman, have you installed NVidia/ATI proprietary drivers? If not, install them using "Menu -> System -> Extra drivers" (don't know how exactly it's called in English, 'cause I have Russian version of Xubuntu).
If they are installed, try fully cleaning your wine prefix: enter "winetricks" in terminal, then "select the default wineprefix -> Delete ALL DATA AND APPLICATIONS INSIDE THIS PREFIX" (normally default wineprefix is

/home/%USERNAME%/.wine/

and don't forget to move your osu! folder from there (if it's there), or it will be deleted too).
Then, after cleaning prefix, it will be recreated with default settings. Close winetricks window, then type in terminal window once again:

winetricks corefonts fontfix gdiplus dotnet20

(Well, after "winericks" programs can go in any order, but better just copy-paste that line in you terminal)
After everything is installed, type "winecfg" in terminal and Wine Config window will appear. Select "Audio", and then in DirectSound section set Hardware Acceleration to "Emutation".

Well, after all of this procedures everything is working just perfect on my machine: Intel Pentium 4 3,66 GHz, 1Gb DDRII RAM, NVidia GeForce 8600 GTS. And my system is Xubuntu 11.04, kernel is custom-compiled 2.6.39.1.
If you won't have any problems, that's awesome, if that will be happening again, there is something wrong with your system and/or hardware.

Wine doesn't like osu installation .exe, so only way to run is to get a folder with pre-installed osu. There was one here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZXY2UTL7 (thanks to Nargajuna). Just put folder from archive and try lauhching osu!.exe in it.

That's not their problem. As you can see in terminal, there is some issues with your audio and video cards.
First of all, have you installed NVidia/ATI(AMD) proprietary drivers? It's very important, 'cause GPU doesn't work in full power with standard linux video drivers.
Don't know what to say about audio error, never had it, sorry.

3. When I exit Osu, it makes the resolution stuck and I have to reset my computer for it to resize. I can't to change it manually after I exit Osu.

I'm having the same problem but I had resolved in my other computer, the problem is that I do not remember! I think it had more to install a library and the problem of the resolution has to run on a virtual desktop and your problem of bancho I have no idea because it does not start :/

^This tuto don't work for a netbook, you have a better CPU That is the reason that you see is not slow. In OpenGL throws me about 6 fps but in directx I get about 120 to 200 fps, the problem it's i have problem to start a map, this don't start and I know the problem is the audio in wine and its version 1.3, the problem with version 1.2 is that in ubuntu 11.10 does not let you give permission to the file to run as an application

The other problem I have is that I can not install an older version of ubuntu, there comes a time when the installation does not continue

PD: clarified that in my desktop PC in Ubuntu 11.04 goes perfect the only problem I have is in the netbook

how do you create he archive asound.conf? is the only step I'm missing

rocker2344, kernel 3.1 is a current stable kernel. Why shouldn't I use it?

Well, a tutorial here.
I'm using ArchLinux with latest kernel(3.1) and latest wine(1.3.32) with a sandy brigde intel HD3000 gpu on Lenovo Thinkpad x220 laptop.
1) Copy installed osu folder to your home directory or any suitable path.
2) Run winetricks dotnet20
3) Run winetricks gdiplus ddr=opengl dsoundhw=Full fontsmooth=rgb glsl=disabled multisampling=disabled rtlm=disabled strictdrawordering=disabled
4) Always run osu in a wine's desktop window. It would add some FPS because without desktop window wine probes video ports every VBLANK. I have 160 FPS without desktop window and 250 with desktop window.
vblank_mode=0 WINEDEBUG=-all WINEARCH=win32 wine explorer.exe /desktop=osu,1366x768 osu\!.exe
where 1366x768 your resolution.

Try not to use pulseaudio. If you don't really need it, just remove it, if you cannot remove it use pasuspender


Run osu and execute
cat /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/sub0/hw_params
If you buffers are high(above 8192 I think) then you can make them lower to make audio latency lower.

Create /etc/asound.conf with this:

pcm.!default {
      type plug
      slave.pcm "dmixer"
  }

pcm.dmixer {
  type dmix
  ipc_key 1024
   slave {
    pcm "hw:0,0"
    period_time 0
    period_size 512
    buffer_time 0
    buffer_size 2048
   }
}

Change period_size and buffer_size to bigger values if you have no sound at all or shuttering.

Disable composite while playing! this is one of the most important thing.

It means you do not have super user access. basically it is saying you can not change any system settings. find an account that is admin level and go on with the install. If you do not have admin access talk to the person who helped you with your ubuntu install

ok. then your account is a "user" account and not an admin. If this is so you should be able to reboot and choose recovery mode.
in recovery mode there is no mouse. so either save this on paper or open this in another computer

Reboot
select recovery
an option window will show.
select root shell (pick the one with out the net option)
you are now root (if a password has not been set for the root account)
run the command

addgroup user admin

and to be safe because i have not done this in a long time

addgroup user sudo

now type

reboot

you can now run sudo commands
