Hey guys! I'm trying to run wow in my Arch 64 bit linux system. First of all: glxinfo | grep "direct rendering" Returns Yes Im running it of my ntfs windows partion if that makes a different ? It launches the command: wine Launcher.exe -OpenGL just fine, but when I click Play - it ends up with the following: Failed to find a suitable display device. Exiting program And thats it ? I cant understand why or what to do, i've read something about running 32bit wine - but i honestly don't know how ?

You may need to uninstall and reinstall your video drivers after the 32 bit Wine install is complete, video drivers often get confused by kernel and wine version changes. This may or may not be of help: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Install_bundled_32-bit_system_in_Arch64 Not having used Arch I'm not sure how reliable their wiki is, but it may give you a place to start.

Ensure the folder you are running WoW from is in your Linux partition, under your Linux filesystem.http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=20549
