Linux gaming. Let's face it - it's terrible. Tux Racer? Please. Quake III, okay, I'll give you that. NeverWinter Nights? If you can get it to work. WINE? If you have enough hair left to pull out, WINE is a good choice.

Have any of you people ever used X with multiple monitors? I use to have a triple-head setup, but now I've settled on dual-head. It's still horribly slow, but not as bad as triple-head was
Yup, and it was as fast as the normal desktop. My only issue was the third monitor was too far (the way my desk is set), so it didn't make much sense. My other issue is that Xinerama doesn't allow for 3D support (a real problem with Xinerama, in my book).
However, again, your problems are with Gentoo, the operating system you are using. Maybe you should switch to something that does some of the work for you. As has been said by many others: running Gentoo doesn't instantly mean your computer runs faster. Indeed, your belief that it does (as I gather from your comments) shows me your real lack of experience, and I believe the problems you are experiencing are a direct result of you.
