Silkroad in Ubu

[Ben Sprinkle]

Anyong got any idea how to get Silkroad Online working in Ubuntu? Wine doesn't seem to want to run it right. It loads the title splash, but just puts a grey box there. When clicking it gives an error. I was running in root also.

Looks like there has been varying success with the game, may be a system to system basis on if it works or not.

I can't even get it working correctly in windows.
It's not the best written game and the anti-cheat protection is basically a rootkit.

I think you can play Silkroad Online on Ubuntu 7.04 (When it comes)
When can I get Ubuntu 7.04 from Ubuntu.com ???

EDIT: Can I update from Ubuntu 6.10 to Ubuntu 7.04?

Upgrading ubuntu isn't going to magically make Wine work better/with more applications.

Do not run Wine as root.
