    Has anyone got LOTRO to work in Karmic?

    I've got a fresh install of Karmic, installed LOTRO according to instructions on WineHQ appdb, but all I get after updating everything when the game starts is a black screen.

    LOTRO has a gold rating from previous versions. I'm just surprised it refuses to work for me now. So question is, did Karmic bork it up or is it possible I missed something during install/setup?

    Just FYI, I finally got it to work.

    You have to download d3dx9_36.dll and put it in
    ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/d3dx9_36.dll

    After that, it works rather well. Sound dies now and then, textures are behaving weirdly sometimes, game freezes if alt-tab or other way of switching apps, etc. But it is playable.
