Hopefully I will be able to play Captain Claw at normal speed :)
EDIT: Doesn't work on WINE :(
Most games get capped at my refresh rate with r600g anyway, but there are a few games in WINE that use Direct3D that do not seem to respect this, making it a pain that I can not seem to get this to work.
I've recompiled wine and gallium nine patches 10+ times in last couple of days..., have similar problem, WINE with gallium nine does not respect display settings. I've tried some trick to limit FPS that may work for you. Use gallium nine of possible, if game have an option, enable vertical sync "in game" option and enable it, your FPS should be capped at 60FPS (even tho, V-SYNC is unlikely to work).
This is not a solution for me, since my refresh rate isn't 60Hz, so capping at 60FPS is useless..., I've tried changing X11DRV parameters in wine sources (dlls/winex11.drv/settings.c and dlls/winex11.drv/desktop.c) and in gallium nine patch itself, it simply do not want to move from 60FPS to given value, but still if youa re at 60Hz that should not be a problem to you. I've tried changing every (= 60) paramether in wine source, combinations of them etc. (under D3D, DirectX etc.) with no sucess. I'm quite lost at what should i try next to get wine at desired refresh rate via gallium nine...

For me libstrangle works with wine games too after i did the above.
Playing with it some more though I have discovered that Trine 2, Shadowrun, and Ziggurat do work for me with libstrangle while things like ioquake3 and dhewm3 do not. If I could count my WINE games among that number I would be reasonably happy, but they always claim they can not set the video mode.
Unfortunatelly, for me, two wine games I play sometimes do not work even with this, thanks for the suggestion tho, might be bcs of OSS drivers (but i doubt). I have lib32-glibc installed ofc. Tried also without gallium nine, it crashes the game.
I'm not sure, but i think Trine 2 (Linux version) can be limited from in game (at least to 30FPS), yeah, same problem, segmentation faults here on r600.
Unhandled exception: page fault on read access to 0x00000000 in 32-bit code (0x00000000).
Backtrace is connected with "libc.so.6".
