Guide 2: Copy / Install (This will almost undoubtably work for everybody, but its more time intensive and hard drive space intensive. Not ideal for all people.)
Step 1:
Open a Terminal Window
Step 2: Run the following commands
Quote:
sudo mkdir /mnt/tmp
mount | grep cdrom
(look for something that says /dev/<something> and note it, you will need it for the next steps)
sudo umount /media/cdrom
sudo mount -t udf -o ro,unhide,uid=1000 /dev/<something> /mnt/tmp
sudo mkdir /tmp/wotlk
cd /mnt/tmp
sudo cp -R * /tmp/wotlk
<wait about 10-20 minutes>
sudo chown -R <youruserID> /tmp/wotlk
wine /tmp/wotlk/Installer.exe
I did all this and got no errors Untill the x server display.
it worked fine When i try to copy the files to a folder it says i don't have permition. So the problem I had was the same of the first person on this thread. I followed it all and got to this point everything works i can get it to run but I get that error. I have a GeForce 7300 SE/7200 GS (nividia) When i switched from windows ubuntu handled the installation.I have used crossovergames in the past so i know its installed properly.I can get other games to work such as the sims3 and linux fps.
This is what i get when i run gksudo nautilus:** (nautilus:4169): WARNING **: Unable to add monitor: Operation not supported
e' returned error 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares. Error No such file or directory
