Hi!

I have just copied the world of warcraft folder from a computer with windows to my Ubuntu/linux. Now I think there is something wrong with one of my winefiles because when i launch the game it says something like : "The program winedevice.exe has encountered a serios problem and needs to close. This can be coused by a problem in the program or a deficiency in wine"
The program winedevice.exe has encountered a serios problem and needs to close. This can be coused by a problem in the program or a deficiency inwi
I use wine version 1.1.22 and i know my comp is able to run WoW. Any ideas whats wrong? As the title says, my gameplay is really laggy, even with very low grafic quality.

ruzkie: WoW doesn't make registry entries...

necro: this belongs in the WINE forum: http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=313
I posted the sticky saying not to post windows gaming questions here for a reason.

which video card and drivers? If you have Intel then it won't work all that great with Wine. Nvidia is the best option.
