@BlackNoxis/tparker: Wine --version: wine-1.2.2 I checked the software package manager program and I don't see a newer Wine version listed :( The graphics drivers are version "NVIDIA 195.36.24" I believe - the "185" in nvidia-glx-185 doesn't seem to match the actual driver version for some reason. ------ @dardack: Thanks for the info. I'd still be interested

I'm using nvidia-current for the drivers and nvidia-glx-185 (which appears to be the latest although I did see mention of version 195 somewhere on the internet). Can you post your xorg.conf, Config.wtf (or at least the relevant parts of it) and anything else that may be useful (glxinfo output?) please. I'd really appreciate it. Also, do you remember any settings or changes you did after

Hello, The WoW 4.0 Cataclysm patch landed today, and there's bound to be lots of questions about getting it running in wine. My current status is that I've downloaded the patch and installed it. I've got the new (original WoW) login screen graphic. Once I login, I see a new character background and then a "downloading update" message. Wine crashes moments later.

I'm getting 24 FPS in Uldum in that place the portal from Orgrimmar takes you to. Not great. My wife seems to be raiding ok with it as it is, so I guess we're ok, but it seems sad to have upgraded CPU and RAM so much and be getting such poor results. Seeing as playing WoW is pretty much all we do with it, maybe it's worth giving ?80 to Micro$oft to get their rubbish OS. In summary,

Ok, after several hours, I installed the nVidia drivers from their own website, and then (this was the bit that took longest) I installed Wine 1.3.28 from the PPA. I had a go at building 1.3.29 from sources, but it complained about not having 32 bit development libraries. I looked around and all I could find was to install wine-deps from the PPA so I figured if I was going to do that, I might as

Off the top of my head, the graphics cards are 7600 GS graphics cards. On the Kubuntu forum, some people who didn't have my problems getting OpenGL to work say they used some X Updates PPA to get their nVidia drivers packages, and they have version 280 of the drivers. I also found a website that talked about building the kernel with some special CONFIG options such as AGPGART and stuff. I

I ran WoW on Windows just a few weeks before I first posted in this thread. TBH my wife used it more than me - it was her PC. But I used to occasionally steer her around when we were questing together or something and she was AFK. The graphics settings under Windows were much higher then than they are now and the FPS, although I didn't measure it exactly, was at least as good. When I turn the

I only got offered a few choices - I think I clicked yes to all of them. I read in one post that the answer is to uninstall and re-install the graphics drivers - not sure how that will help, but how do I uninstall nVidia's drivers? I have a vague memory of someone posting about lib32 paths and simlinks or something.

Are you pschizophrenic? Anyway, as I have said before, I am sure it ran faster when I was running it with the same graphics cards under Windows with a slower processor and less RAM. Maybe I need to tweak the SLI setting. Currently it is set to "on", but there are other settings. ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/96.43.20/README/appendix-w.html has some details.

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

been a couple of days now that i'm trying to install WoW cataclysm from the downloader provided by blizz, once i install and the launcher for the downloading of the game starts the launcher blocks and turns off. i run ubuntu 12.04 LTS and tried with both wine 1.4 and 1.5 and both have the same error, i also tried installing the IE6 libraries for the launcher but nothing changes. here are the

Hi, I've got no problem playing World of Warcraft via the Wow.exe file, but Launcher.exe was always a little buggy, crashing from time to time. Problem is that today there's a new, small, patch, and Launcher.exe keeps crashing (the Launcher window shows up, then freeze), so i can't update and therefore, can't play. I use Archlinux (64bit) and wine 1.3.19. Crash log: Code:

So i installed World of Warcraft under WinE and all seemed to work fine. But when i start Launcher.exe, the launcher shows up, then a few seconds later is just disappears and nothing happens... Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I installed World of Warcraft and I am able to bring up the Launcher screen. I click play, the launcher disappears as it should but then the login screen never comes up. The Wine window has to force the process to stop in order to exit Wine. I'm Using Ubuntu 10.10 with an ATI graphics card. Any ideas?

Debian Lenny Wine 1.1.42 (because there are no binaries) Nvidia 9600 GT I just tried to install the WOW expansion Cataclysm. The Wine installer program returns "access denied".

So Bliz just a pushed a new Beta build and I'm getting alot of crashes now. Anyone else? A few observations: 1. It crashes anytime I log into a character in Orgrimar. It manages to actually complete the loading process, but within a second or two of Org and my character appearing, crash. The only thing that has happened before the crash in these cases is my character's talent
