    Try the recommended WoW AddOn that should make video adjustments available and functional. It's called Apply To Forehead and I think a link to it can be found in this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=654681

    It's an attachment in the 1st post even.

    Additionally you could edit the video entry in your Config.wtf for wow that says 1024x768 to the proper resolution that you require.

    As for locking up while playing. Bound to happen. I agree with others and say the card is overheating. Try a new GPU cooler other than the stock cooler you may be using. Recommend GPU coolers from Zalman. I'm using one on my 9600XT and that's added years of life to the card and increased stability under loads 10 fold.

    If you still don't think thats the case try playing the game at a very high resolution and see how fast it crashes, then go back to 1024x768 and time it there, then at 800x600... if the time between crashes from high resolution to low resolution increases then its memory or heat. Good luck.

    World of Warcraft: White Minimap

    Looks like I'm being told to open a bug report with ATI since Wine does a 1:1 with OpenGL

    http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11826

    Still curious why it works fine in D3D and not OpenGL.

    Maybe the guru's at ATI will have the clues.

    Those of you that are using Cat 8.1 or 8.2 and 0.9.56 and older with this issue are encouraged to let me know. I can confirm this issue as far back as Wine 0.9.48 w/ Cat 8.1 and 0.9.55+ with Cat 8.2.

    My Video Card is the: ATI Radeon 9600XT

    I encourage others with this issue to reply or PM me please.

    Re: Howto: WOW with Wine (help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft)

    I think I really mucked something up

    I just upgraded to 7.10 from 7.04. WoW used to run fine but after upgrading I tried to install a different video card. The card I tried to install is ATI and it did not work. I reverted back to the old card (Nvidia MMX 440) but WoW will not launch.

    I double click and a Blizzard error report comes up. I tested WoW after upgrading to 7.10 and it worked just as well as it did with 7.04. Anyone have any ideas? It's most definitely a user error but any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks, Dan.

    Just ran this command in the terminal

    glxinfo | grep rendering

    And it gave me this :
    Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual
    Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"

    And repeated that for several lines. Think I may have messed something up with my video card. I tried this command :

    sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx

    To see if I had the wrong driver but after installing it I still get the same information in the terminal.

    Any information would be appreciated

    This is what my xorg.conf file looks like... appears like a few things are disabled:

    Section "Module"
    Disable "dbe"
    Disable "dri"
    Disable "glx"
    Disable "vbe"

    Also might be good to mention that I used Envy to install the Nvidia driver.
    Hope that helps someone help me =P

    Re: Howto: WOW with Wine (help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft)

    I have a strange issue on Ubuntu 7.10 on my Asus z71v laptop. The game runs fine and has been for a while. I'm noticing on the latest version of Ubuntu that it seems to peg the cpu when I launch it any time after closing out a session. Not the biggest problem in that I just reboot and it works fine for 1 launch again, but it would be nice to not have to do that. Any clues?

    EDIT: disabled desktop visual effects and it works fine, apparently something to do with that...

    Re: Howto: WOW with Wine (help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft)

    Okay, totally stupid question, but after I download the applytoforehead addon, how do I move it into my WoW files?

    I am very new at the Ubuntu thing. Installing addons in Xp was fairly easy, but I am having trouble wrapping my head around this one.

    Thanks!!

    If you installed WoW addons in Xp then it's the same in Linux. The only "gotcha" is that the default WoW install path is in a hidden directory (.wine) and you will need to show hidden files with a Ctrl+H (in the default Ubuntu filre manager). Then navigate to:

    .wine/drive_c/Program Files/World of Warcraft/Interface/Addons

    and place the extracted files there (in their own subfolder of course).

    First find out what process is taking your CPU resources: System -> Administration -> System Monitor then sort by %CPU.

    Re: Howto: WOW with Wine (help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft)

    I'm having a very hard time trying to run Warcraft on ubuntu, I followed 3 threads on how to install it on ubuntu but i still have a minor problem, the problem I now have and that I can't seem to figure out on my own is that when I start the game from the launcher or direct from WoW.exe with Wine i get the sound but no video, then the hole thing crashes at the login screen, I searched forums and threads for help but haven't found an answer to my problem, I changed Wine's configurations and got all updates, changed Config.wtf in wow interface, made a new registry key, video drivers are all up-to-date. I ran WoW launcher in terminal and got this:

    Re: Howto: WOW with Wine (help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft)

    Hokai.

    I'm having issues right from the start.I go to run the

    sudo apt-get install wine

    command. It's spitting out this;

    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree
    Reading state information... Done
    Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
    requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
    distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
    or been moved out of Incoming.

    Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
    the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
    that package should be filed.
    The following information may help to resolve the situation:

    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
    wine: Depends: libaudio2 but it is not installable
    E: Broken packages


    any help?
