Hah. Don't get your hopes up. Playstation 3 development takes up all my time now. :D

1. Fix your Nvidia driver install.
2. READ the wiki entry on how to install GotY edition, which has extra copy protection. ;)

Read the wiki to see how to install and setup the game.

Don't use 0.9.29 -- use 0.9.38. You can get the deb from http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/index.html as mentioned in the Oblivion wiki. You should also read the wiki for proper setup.

If it crashes going right into game it's likely that you didn't disable the 'logo' movie before the intro movie. For some reason it often causes a crash. Just comment that movie out of the list in...

Is this a GotY disc? The guide only covers the first pressing of Oblivion and the separate content paks. The Shivering Isles required a round the 'bout install method due to similar issues. Securom...

Tym:
Hmm... I had an issue kind of like that, but the speedtree sprites would transform incorrectly but not deform. I can't remember what I did to fix it to be honest either. ^^

That doesn't make sense. Did you have the DVD mounted? Try the suggested older version at the wiki if you have any more problems, since the latest version has bugs.

Read the wiki it has numbered step by step instructions.

http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Linux#Registry_editing_in_Wine

It doesn't get easier than that.

For one thing the wiki should tell you to use pbuffer, and also try the version recommended if the lastest version has problems. Often with wine an older version might play a game better than a...

No, just chmod +x the run and run it with ./*run. If you run with sh *.run it'll give that error.

Also it seems the mouse bug is related to how the windowed game is centered. Very odd, but I've...

If anyone has problems with their mouse set the aspect ratio to 4:3 and select a 4:3 resolution. Both 16:9 and 16:10 rendered the game unplayable with a mouse mapping bug. Basically, you can't...

Read the wiki Known Issues. Most of the versions of Wine you just tried aren't considered playable. It's due to the fact some of those versions will crash changing areas or with certain effects for...

Yeah, you can try downgrading to 0.9.38 or another version. I don't think I've loaded up 0.9.43 or got a report on it either, so I can't speak for it. Basically, it means graphic effects are not...

What version of Wine is that? It looks like a normal / parallax issue.

Are you actually out of diskspace then? Making a new drive letter makes sure Wine uses the partition's free space -- not the mountpoint's partition. This means if you don't make a new drive letter...

I'll check the wiki, since it's likely someone could've 'nuked' the copy command at one point. We had a problem with Windows users trying to 'fix' it once or twice. There is no xcopy in Linux. ^^...

Yeah, your card is a little 'slow' for the game. I consider the shader operations and memory bandwidth of the 6800 AGP the floor for...

It's good to hear a report that pbuffers issue is likely resolved. ^^

Did you disable the refraction and 'water' shaders as suggested? Also you're amount of video memory may get some texture thrashing, but I forgot if that's always the case.

Yeah, the thing to...

It's not a rootkit, however it is a horribly designed peice of software in terms of the consumer. The 'rookit' comes from it using a registry key that's supposedly unremoveable. This triggers some...

Are you not running WINE 0.9.38?

Wine 0.9.39+ crashes with pbuffer in use on transistions and more.

Read the Known Issues section in the wiki.

1. Don't use 0.9.41 use the suggested version 0.9.38 first. Once you have that working try your luck with the broken threading.

2. If you read the wiki more carefully it tells you how to make...

What version of WINE is that? Also are you sure you have the latest Nvidia drivers? It could be a threading issue causing that invalid address. It could also be failing to load the extention...

It should be similar, since it's the same guide in wiki form. I moved revisions of the guide from here and my personal webpage to the wiki, so it can be maintained outside the core 'Oblivion dudes'...
