Hi all. When trying to minimize the guild wars window from fullscreen, all it seems to do is draw a screenshot of my current desktop and stick it in a window and call it the guild wars window. I can't minimize or maximize this window, so getting back to the game doesn't happen, I must close it and restart. Has anyone else encountered this problem? I am using Linux Mint 9 with the latest

Hi, I would appreciate any help with getting Guild Wars 2 to run on Debian Linux (KDE, testing). When I hit the "Play" button on the start screen, the music starts to play but the GW2 window only shows the underlying console window. It just sits there and has to be killed manually.

A new mmo called Forsaken World (http://fw.perfectworld.com/) just entered closed beta. The client is crashing in Wine. It's crashing instantly, before any window appears. The patcher is fine.

No doubt

I'm attempting to use the Guild Wars Client to see if it will work on WINE, but it keeps displaying an error about not being able to write to the proper directories.

The client is only a 60k download (it downloads the rest itself):
