Some further details and a screenshot..
Hi, I've taken a screenshot, it's attached.
With regard to any strange settings, it's a plain install of winex3 (http://www.transgaming.com/), in case you don't know about winex I'll explain. Winex is an implementation of wine, which is the windows emulator for unix derived systems (including GNU/Linux), winex costs $5 a month in subscription costs to fund its development (they claim it will be free when development is complete..). Winex is a more thorough implementation of wine's DirectX set.
I played the rom with Video set to OpenGL and the internal sound driver. Because I chose OpenGL I expect that 2064 would work fine with wine as well as winex.
On my Althon XP 1800+ with a NVidia 440 MX I get smooth play and no sound skipping - so I'm best pleased
You can set wine to allow fullscreen mode if you please. I haven't risked it yet..
If I get round do it I'll compare the performance in Windows. Many thanks for the excellent emulator and I'll happily answer more questions if you post to this thread..

Seems it doesn't attach things if you preview the post first. Hopefully it'll work this time..
If not I uploaded it to here:

I'm running 1964 perfectly on the newest regular wine release. Any OpenGL plugin seems to work flawlessly (currently using glNintendo64). Also I'm using azimer 0,4 for sound.
