Hi, like many others I am trying to run wow with wine, but unlike many others, it doesn't really work ;) Already tried to fix with this Howto: http://www.wowwiki.com/Linux/Wine Nevertheless, I get to the login (all behind is red, no image like it should be) and to the character selection (only buttons visible, but no labels on them). I even get into the game, seeing the panels, but the

Hi all, I have installed WoW with 0.9.47 (actually also 0.9.45 and 0.9.46 on previous Linux installs) and it was working fairly well (with the due modification to the registry, WoW config file, and nice -15), but I started to have few problems since I have updated wine to 0.9.48. The first and most annoying problem is that every 15-25 minutes WoW freeze; I have to kill it and reopen it. That is

Ok my problem like the title says is, I have video lag every 11~13 seconds during 1 seconds, this happens in OpenGl or D3d mode, it isn't a sound, problem even with the sound deactivated the problem persist, I have tested in the following configurations: 1- Hardware: AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+, 2 Gb RAM Corsair, Geforce 8800 GT, Sata 2 Hard disk. SO: Archlinux kernel 2.6.25, Nvidia driver

I've run across the following two articles on the wow wiki. The first link is the general page for Linux/Wine. The sound and voice chat is what I'm most interested in about the second link. Can anyone comment on how current and useful these tips are? It's nice to know that Blizzard knows about and actually seems to "care" about Linux users, but I really do NOT want to break

Running openSUSE 1.11, gnome desktop and wine 1.1.9. (WoW patch 3.1.3) WoW just shuts down, no errors, no warnings, no nothing.. There is no indications of a crash it just plain shuts down as if I'd hit alt+f4. Anyone having the same problem?

Hey all! I'm running Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04, the 32-bit version on a 64-bit computer. I installed the latest wine (1.0) from the terminal just by going: Code: sudo apt-get install wine It installed perfectly and seems to work as it should. I then downloaded the World of Warcraft trial from wow-europe, and installed it with wine by right clicking on it and selecting wine. I am able to

Hi I have installed lastest version on Wine and I moved my old worls of Warcraft installation to the folder where it's supposed to be. I can get the game so far as character selection screen, but when I choose a character, the game + my whole computer crashes when the world is trying to open up ( I can see the world, but then it just freezes up) I am on a laptop runninG SLED10 ( Suse 10.1)

Code: sh winetricks gfw does not work under regular user; only under root ( Code: sudo sh winetricks gfw ). What have i tried: * wiping ~/.wine preffix directory * creating new user in the system with clean ~/ home directory * applying winetricks volnum and winetricks sandbox * different versions of wine; from 1.2 to 1.3.15 * switching from 64-hybrid system to 32-vanilla one * switching from

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

I'm writing a short howto article for WoWWiki and thought it'd be nice to add the CentOS logo to the page. I looked at Wikipedia and they have this page with the logo: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Centos_logo.png> Note the issues mentioned there. I'd like to use it here, on another MediaWiki-based wiki: <http://www.wowwiki.com/Linux/Wine/CentOS>

The transition from Windows to Linux has been more or less painless for me, except for one thing; a game called Space Colony. The WineDB lists it as Platiunum, Cedega lists it as something that can work, I had high hopes to get it working on at least one of these systems. After I installed the program through WINE, it popped up the autorun menu and I clicked 'play' where I then got the

Running Ubuntu 7.10 64bit, had World of Warcraft running fine under Wine with OpenGL, then my graphics card ate itself (Nvidia 7900GTX). Bought a new one (Nvidia 8800GT), but I had to monkey with the system in order to get the 8800GT to work. I'm pretty sure I messed something up trying to get the 8800GT to work as I had to remove the restricted drivers module. Now when I try to run WoW.exe

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.
