wine users - Aug 2009 - WC3 - Can´t connect to Battle.Net and can´t find lan games

Hi,

My distribution is Debian 5.0 "Lenny" stable.

I?ve got Wine 1.0.1 and I?ve installed Warcraft III on it.

If I try to connect to Battle.Net, it says, that it can?t connect and if I
search for games in lan, I can?t find anything.

Upgrade, latest Wine version is wine-1.1.27.

1.1.27 is the latest, but is it already stable?

And does the update solve my problem?

@John Drescher:

So I have to wait for version 1.2.x?

I do not know that answer however if you are brave enough to compile
from source there should be a patch that will fix this. Although I do
play WC3 from time to time I have never played battlenet so I have
never tested this.

No 9999 that means you have to find the solution if you can't connect read
the AppDB and check if anyone is having the same issue as you. You'll
usually find it in bugzilla all but for specific ones look up the program/game
on AppDB, right below the ratings you'll see bug reports if anyone of them
match check if anyone has solved them or there is a patch. If you do find one
come back here and I'll explain how to patch wine from source, for now
I'll try WarCraft 3 maybe I'll find what the problem is.

Yeah I noticed once I checked the page, I don't play WarCraft 3 anymore but
this why you always check AppDB first.

Install git via your package manager

I?ve already installed git, but it still displays the same error message.

In /usr/bin are the applications gitaction, gitdpkgname, gitfm, gitkeys,
gitmkdirs, gitmount, gitps, gitregrep, gitrfgrep, gitrgrep, gitunpack, gitview,
gitwhich, gitwipe, gitxgrep, but there is no application called "gip".

I don?t know if it matters, but I have used aptitude to install gip.

I?ve installed git-core now.

If I use the command


Code:
git clone git://repo.or.cz/wine/war?craft3.git wine-war3



now, it displays ths:


Code:
Initialized empty Git repository in /root/wine-war3/.git/
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

Try again later. This is a server problem.

I?ve tried it several times yesterday and twice today, but it still doesn?t
work.

Maybe you installed W3 wrong or perhaps you copied your W3 installation from
Windows which doesn't do the trick.

W3 runs correctly and smoothly to original B.Net and PvPGNs under any Wine
version. I had Debian Lenny for quite some time now and been playing W3 for 2
years. Atm on Debian Squeeze where Wine doesn't work at all strangely.
