similar to: Wow and death on ATI

Good evening all, I've got a pretty bad graphic stutter that happens every 2 seconds or so. Like the whole game is stopping graphically for a second then returning to normal for another 2 seconds. I've seen the troubleshooting in the ubuntu forums here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft/Troubleshooting#Glitch%20every%203-5%20sec. I've added the SET gxApi

I just revived my LG laptop's Ubuntu install and have put the latest ATi driver on it. 3D acceleration works fine as does compiz. I copied over WoW to test and right now, I have to have ffxGlow "0" in the config.wtf file to get the game to start (otherwise it throws up the blizz error report and terminates). ffxGlow "0" causes rendering problems at the login screen, I

Hello, This is my first post here. I've started with linux some months ago, but i still keep my dual boot to play games. I was able to run work windows soft on Wine, but wasn't able to run wow. I want to run it on linux so i canget rid of Dual boot but i'm having some problems to run it correctly. I've managed to run the game perfecly with "d3d" but the FPS is very

Many months ago, my machine ran WoW 3.x flawlessly. Now however, with Linux, it wont run at all. I am using Wine 1.2.1 and WoW 4.0.1 installed fine with the downloader, and the launcher runs without a hitch (although the "play" button won't appear once in a while). But once the Launcher program attempts to run the wow.exe, I get nothing. No game, no error message. Here's my

hi, im having some problems on WoW. it has been running on my fedora core 7 desktop PC perfectly out of the box, even in directX mode(i added the direct3d key to the registry). im now trying to run it on my Fedora 9 laptop. it is an intel x3100GMA. the graphics are working after some messing with config.wtf, im experiencing random lockups that can happen anywhere between the character select

I've been having the screen tearing issue as well, for about a week. It's not clear whether the symptoms followed the WoW 3.3.3 update, or an update to wine or the ATI drivers. At times the whole Wow window is broken into rapidly moving colored polygons, at other times there's just some flashing bright lines like tracer fire. Only seems to affect the background window if there is a

Hi, I'm a newbie here, so please don't threat me too bad. :D I wanted to ask you .. Yesterday I installed Linux Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy) on my PC, it's the first Linux OS I use on it and I'm pretty confused, but I'm trying to make it work anyway. I installed WoW, using this FAQ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft. I followed it, step to step, except for the

Hello, I've update my Ubuntu Gutsy to Hardy (7.10 -> 8.04) and Wine 0.9.somthing to wine-1.0-rc4. I've the lastest ATI proprietary driver installed. Before, I could run WoW without any problem in OpenGL except the buggy minimap when I entered in a closed area map (a tavern, or a cavern, etc.), the minimap became blank...

Hello all, I've been struggling for a while now to get World of Warcraft running under wine, and there's lots of helpful information out there, but nothing seems to address the particular problem that I am having. Rather than try to explain it to you, it would be easier just to show you a screenshot: http://www.maj.com/gallery/servo/00-BitBucket/wow-opengl.png In a nutshell, the

Hi, some time ago i've installed WoW in Ubuntu 9.10 using wine 1.1.42 (wine1.2 ubuntu package). Everything fine, had a few fps problems but with some tips found in wowwiki i've manage to increase fps to about 20. Some users would say it's still low, but i was happy with it. Well, some weeks ago i've updated to Ubuntu lucid (10.04). It's great, but my WoW fps drop down to about

Hello all, I'm running WoW on Ubuntu 10.10 with the latest wine version as well as latest fglrx drivers. WoW runs quite well except that under the video settings, I can't turn the custom graphics settings to anything else than low. The reason in wow is: "Requires a shader model 3 capable graphics card" My card is an ATI HD5770 so I know it supports SM3. What am I supposed to

Ok guys, I really think I am loosing it here. I finally got a copy of Linux to work well on my Laptop (HPdv5 1003nr) and most games will not load under wine. I have tried: WoW (which works well under my home box with Ubuntu and Nvidia 8800) Half-life 2 (have not tested on the other machine yet - though I do know it used to work) Fear (again only on the laptop) Stalker Space Trader Dungeon

So I managed to install and get WoW running on my Eee PC 1000HD. However, the program will crash unexpectedly after 5-20 minutes. There doesn't seem to be a predictable occurrence that causes it to crash tho. I have been looking for answers but have found nothing so far. I should clarify that it isnt a complete crash. Wine pops up an error about how it needs to close but I can still hear

My problem: After some time playing WoW (about 1-2 minutes) the whole screen turns white. Everything else seems to work perfectly, I still have sound and I still can interact with my character. I can even open a terminal (blindfolded) and type 'killall WoW.exe' to quit WoW and make the white screen go away. wine --version outputs 'wine-1.1.37' I use the propiertary nVidia drivers

Hi, since installing the new ATI Catalyst 8.6 drivers - starting games (or sometimes even starting winecfg) screws up my display and I have to restart the xserver.
