wine users - Jul 2010 - DDO crash

Good evening all!

I got a little problem with DDO under Wine 1.2rc6;

Before beginning, I must say that I use an ATI EAH4670 video card and I know
that ATI is always an issue with wine. Still, my problem could possibly be easy
to solve, I think, I hope... :-)

The game, under wine, is just awesome, no lagging and/or graphical problems
about it. I've been able to try many features and got no known bugs yet.

The only thing that goes wrong it's that after about 5mins of play (always
the same lapse of time, at every try) the game just crashes without warning.

It feels as if the in-game timer (the one for idle players) is still active,
even if I move the "toon", and it kicks me out after that amount of
time...

Anyone knows a way to solve this? I tried the directx mouse capture, but it
didn't work. Since I'm a newbie to wine, I don't know what else to
try...

Thanks to all!  :?

Try again with the latest stable release:  Wine-1.2.

Interesting.  Can you advise what Linux distribution you are using and 
the kernel version?

Oh sorry!

Forgot to mention that I'm using Ubuntu 10.4. Did the same tests with
Kubuntu and Ubuntu since 9.04 with the same results.
Also did these tests with the wine versions that were available during that
time.

Thanks!
