Hi,
I successfully installed Wine 1.0 through Fedora 9's package manager - boy
was I excited. The first thing I installed was World of Warcraft. When I try
to run it nothing happens. So I run the command in the terminal:
Code:
env WINEPREFIX="/home/marc/.wine" wine "C:\Program Files\World of
Warcraft\Launcher.exe"
...and I get this result.
Code:
err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {8856f961-340a-11d0-a96b-00c04fd705a2} not
registered
err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {8856f961-340a-11d0-a96b-00c04fd705a2} not
registered
err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {8856f961-340a-11d0-a96b-00c04fd705a2}
could be created for context 0x3
It looks like something didn't go through to the Windows Registry.
First; I used to run the previous version of Wine 0.9.[something] on my Fedora 8
just two weeks ago and I was able to install and play WoW. This go around, it
didn't create my desktop icon nor is there an entry in my applications menu.
So; something went wrong.
Other than that - I've tried to install GTA: San Andreas, Battlefield 2 and
some other others but none of them go through successfully. Am I missing
something. I was playing GTA and WoW just fine on my older distro and version
of Wine. Thanks for any help.
Here's the Error I get from installing GTA

I kind of fixed the install problem, but my WoW game still won't run. I uninstalled Wine and then removed the /home/[user]/.wine directory. It seems that someone went wrong in there. So; when I reinstalled Wine the installs work just fine. I got GTA installed, but it's not running, I got WoW installed, but it's not running. I did install Steam and that seems to be working - so far.
