That's what I'm going to do, after purging all the current nvidia stuff frommy system. The second thing I'm going to do is download, build and install the latest decent version of Wine. Thanks for all your advice. It's been really helpful. --------- One more question. What with OpenGL support getting dropped from WoW, I was wondering if it was worth trying to use DirectX under

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

it seems wow is moving towards GLL for the Macs and could be dropping the normal OpenGL. how is this going to effect running WOW with wine ? right now running wow under directX is painful and so slow on my system thats it just not a option.

Wine 1.3.37 After patching, tried to start Wow with Wow.exe. Got a dialog box that says I need the latest DirectX Runtime. I have 'winecfg' set to XP and Blizzard says that means ver. 9.0c, which, I read somewhere, is what Wine has completed and uses by default. Please feel free to correct any misconceptions I may have. What now?

Hey guys, I'm pretty new to linux and I read in many places that NVIDIA specially for ubuntu was the way to go as far as a video card goes. I currently have a ATI Radeon HD 6950 1Gb. and I have WoW installed and I'm playing it yet the frame drops in 5m and I havent try in 25m yet. So I went a bought the EVGA GeForce GTX 560 Ti ftw edition 448 Cores and due to a lack of drivers (non that

Hey, Im using Wine 1.1.14 for OpenSuse 11.1.

I'm running Linux Mint 6 "Felicia" and Wine 1.1.18, and I'm trying to get World of Warcraft Wrath of the Lich King working. I was able to install everything and get it running, but after the intro movie, the mouse cursor is completely invisible. It's still there, as I can mouse over buttons and click them, but I have no idea where the cursor actually is. Every so often,

Hey just a quick question... Do graphics change when WoW is forced into OpenGl mode??? Or are they identicly to the real graphic thing?

problem is the following. WOW starts and runs but the image setting minimum and do not vary in what could be the problem?

I am just messing around with wine and World of Warcraft, I am behind a firewall and presently unable to get out to WoW, but can get to the login screen fine. The problem is that I can run it with a clean .wtf (config file) and it starts up ok with defaults (DirectX mode) and seems smooth, I exit and then launch it again and it seems to "stutter" and I dont mean sound, but graphically.

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

Hello. This thread is to help anyone having problems with using EPSXE psx emulator in WINE. EPSXE can work in WINE, only if you install directx in WINE. WINE alone does not have directx installed with it but EPSXE requires directx to function. You would need to install directx using any game which has "Install DirectX" or something similar. The redist packages for directx found online

Hi, today I wanted to start Monkey Island 4 with wine. I'am using cvs version of wine from today (04.Feb.2001), I also patched the transgaming directx patch into it. My system: SuSE 7.0 with KDE2.1beta2, GeForce 2MX with 0.96 NVidia drivers, Soundblaster PCI 128 (ES1371) with Kernel drivers. I use wine with installed Windows. My startup command is: wine "c:\Monkey4\Monkey.exe"

I have a numbers of questions. I know about half of them are probably program related (World of Warcraft) but I figured I'd group them together for the most part. First the states. I'm using a Dell Inspiron Laptop (their Ubuntu line). I reinstalled Linux myself (had to redo the partitions) and dual boot Ubuntu and Windows 7, Wow does work under Windows 7, but what's the fun in

I used wine to install 3DSMax 7 in ubuntu. Unlike other versions, this one is known (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=2588&iTestingId=45222) to run with wine. Even though the software indeed is starting and running, I'm facing trouble with directx and my ATI-graphics-card now: The viewports just don't refresh (see screenshot below). Changing to OpenGL

even since I installed Linux and Wine, it seems as though graphically WoW does not seem to be running as smoothly. i have the latest edition of wine. I have tried running wine configured in XP and Vista but it does not seem to make a difference. it could be that i need to configure wow differently since i am using linux with wine. if you guys know of any tricks to make wow run most smoothly please
