    If I remember correctly, the white mini-map is due to ATI drivers . . . have you tried updating if you, in fact, are using an ATI GPU?

    aha...seems it was the Minimap doing the screwy Text stuff :O! and i found an easy way to go around the Minimap too just Download.

    http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-a.../hidemini.aspx

    this addon and it removes ur Minimap and it takes up basicly no space at all and is easy as hell to use i think theres even a way that u could toggle it on and off so if ur outside or anything . anyways thats how i got mine working

    Re: [SOLVED] In WoW but have a problem

    The minimap issue is a long standing bug for ATI users, and relates to the driver not being programmed to handle pbuffers (which the minimap uses).

    Nvidia cards are not affected by this, and usually on an ATi card the map goes white while inside. Sometimes it can also cause screen tearing as you experienced.

    If I remember correctly adding this to your registry in wine will take care of this;

    BTW that String value was added to OpenGL and you have to creat the openGL folder as well.

    I use these guide to install and set-up WoW on linux;
