WoW on Wine
Specs:
Nvidia GeForce 7600 OC (PCI express)
2.8 dual core processor
1 gig ram
Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy
Edit: wine-0.9.32
I used Envy to get my graphics drivers, and everything went fine. Beryl runs fine. I installed Wine, and used Wine to install WoW, and that went fine too. Tried to play wow (beryl was off, I promise) and it was really, really slow. In game graphics for items were garbled as well. I tried a fix that I found *somewhere* in which a key was added to the registry entry for Wine, enabling OpenGL. Tried wow again. Much faster, same issue with in game graphics however, and 2 minutes in it crashes to desktop. Tried again, same result. Removed the registry key and it went back to not crashing, just being unplayably slow.
Any ideas/suggestions/etc appreciated. Apologies in advance, I'm still a n00b when it comes to Linux!
