Has anyone found a way to play Guild Wars on linux yet?

I used to play Guild Wars using Cedega and it worked just fine. However, the last update seems to have broken my possibility of playing so I have since given up on that until a new release. There is a patch for the problem that I mentioned but, didn't work for me.

The issue I'm speaking of is where it logins, lets you choose character and then gets to loading the city you are in but suddenly hangs there. You get a cursor and you can tell you are in game by the way the cursor changes. Problem is it never goes any further. A lot of people have fixed it with a video or some other driver upgrade. I'm one of the ones that it didn't work for either.

Anyway, good luck.

Just something to try if you have not already... When you log in, and your screen will be black with the mouse cursor, press alt+enter, which will bring it into windowed mode..., then press it again to bring you back to full screen. That was the only way I could get the screen to come back.

Hope this helps you,
Bruce

Yeah I had heard/seen that on the Cedega forums and it doesn't work for me. I haven't tried it recently or followed up on it since before my post but I never get a black screen which is the annoying part. Everything appears perfect. For whatever reason it just never left the city/town loading screen.
