that client has been 'in development' for years.

I used to play WoW and vent on the same user using wine for a long while with no issues, other than needing to un-check the 'use direct input for hotkeys' box.

I however, kept ingame sounds disabled.

heh sweet. thanks!

saved me 2 min of copying for nothing

Ya, Same here.... must be something that they did today, since I was able to logon last night. I am going to reboot my other box into that unmetionable OS's name, and see what it does. Maybe that will give some insight as to what its suppose to do.

edit: ok, on that OS, it said downloading and then ...

oh cool, ill try that out, thanks for the hint!

I know this is a really really really old unsolved post.... but i am getting the same error, or near the same one.

When I use the mod at http://ui.worldofwar.net/ui.php?id=2764, WoW crashes when I open the minimap, whether I'm indoors or not.

@Timbers2k: Is 0.9.10 the most recent version wherein everything works with no crashes?

the addon doesnt fix being able to use the map it fixes crashing on startup by ...

opengl flickers HORRIBLY unplayable...no Config.wtf settings changes from the wow forums helped :( I am sure t has somehting to do with those new M2 or whatever shaders.

Nah, M2Faster could be enabled in previous versions and worked fine for me.

oh ok, it said something about it in the patch ...

Well, I downgraded to 0.9.13 and it works a little better than 0.9.14 which worked better than 0.9.15 (which didn't start at all), still flickery (even on the login screen) but not the whole screen, just part of it.

Console output for anyone interested, though I imagine it's pretty standard


I ...

It loads and 'works' for me....however the screen flickers and it is very unplayable and screen unreadable. If I could I would show a picture of what its doing. :/

1.0.8756 nvidia drivers, 6.8 xorg, 0.9.13 wine with wow patch.

I HATE patch day :/

I cannot. since I have to use OSS in wine with Vent, it hogs the sound device.

ventrilo emulation

I also tried Ventrilo emu and didnt work as planned. But i mostly use that to communicate with friends.
My guild are using TeamSpeak which works well while playing WoW.

uhhh, thats not what I ment to type.... ventrilo win32 app running on wine. is what I ment sorry. Me and ...

I have a simmilar problem, so its not just you 8)

I, too had awesome performance months ago, but I had a problem with ventrilo emulation (having to have the ventrilo window active to talk) and I kinda lead a raid, so my voice is needed :( I do not remember the exact versions of everything I had ...

I finally got it to work. Thankyou for your help, all of you.

the solution : ifconfig didnt install

#emerge net-tools from the live cd fixed it all up.

Hello all.
A long while ago, I had gentoo up and running on this system 3200+ amd64 on a nforce4 mb.
I believe I had somewhere around 2.6.12 or so kernel, and everything was peachy. I had to completly erase my harddrives and repartition everything due to some bad space allocation (my own fault)

I ...

go to ~/.wine/dosdrives

find the symbolic link to c:

that should point you in the right direction

or you could copy the p2 system onto the 64 and chroot. everything would be the same then.

not good, what about updating? I would have to copy it over again. I suppose NFS would work for that, but still more work than just pugging the box into the switch and running ssh off of this one :)

There is however one thing that troubles me. From time to time, the game starts to lag heavily - after 2+ hours playing it just drops framerate and behaves as if played on a riva tnt.

I'm not sure, but it looks like a similar behaviour that I experience every now and then, as described in my ...

I'm sure daemons like cpudyn are usefull, but you are correct--they are not required. I load the cpufreq_conservative module at startup and have the following line in /etc/conf.d/local.start echo conservative > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor This definitely scales my ...

second is not the case. i have it rigged so i have a lot of air on it when i want it.

I don't have cpudyn. as far as I remember all you needed were the things in the kernel... maybe I read the wrong thing.....

Hello,
I have read the howto and got ondemand compiled in the kernel... dont remember the other options... been a while, anyways, I just kinda trusted it works, and it sortof does. I noticed that at idle (I have torsmo stup to display my cpu temp and freq) my temperature was not going down much(1 ...

Hello guys, first of all i would like to say that thanks to this forum i got WoW up and running almost flawlessly.

I run it now on patched wine-0.9.1 with pthreaded glibc.

There is however one thing that troubles me. From time to time, the game starts to lag heavily - after 2+ hours playing it ...

Got it. using a i686 stage3 tarball

in the following steps i did not upgrade the stage3 install, if it matters or not.

# mkdir /mnt/gentoo32
# cd /mnt/gentoo32
# wget <stage3-tarball>
# tar -xvjpf <stage3-tarball>

ok, I thought that when it compiled the gcc stuff in another directory that it compiled them as 32 bit.... I'll get to work on that.

I have the same setup (sortof)

mine are

hda linux
hdb windows

in grub.conf I have

title=WINXP
map (hd0) (hd1)
map (hd1) (hd0)
chainloader (hd1,0)+1

this setup was the product of installing windows first, as it being the only drive attached, then linux drive was added.
I got it off of a thread ...

this may help a little, as far as the windows part goes


title=WINXP
map (hd0) (hd1)
map (hd1) (hd0)
chainloader (hd1,0)+1

windows needs to be seen as the first harddrive
EDIT, i read again about the windows drive... its on the secondary controller as slave?
then replace (hd1) with (hd3 ...
