I (hopefully) definitely found out what my fault was....
In kernel options / device drivers / character devices I had chosen the wrong agpgart chipset. Changed to ati chipset support (and not intel). Right now I am testing WoW and it works like a charm.
my fglrxoptions in xorg.conf are:
Option "EnablePrivateBackZ" "yes"
Option "UseFastTLS" "2"
Are there any driver settings that can improve the performance any further ? 
I bought my graphic card this week and the first driver which recognizes the chipset of my x1300 le is the actual 8.25  So I have to say - well done ATI (Though 8.24.8 worked too but used generic chipset) |

I am using the 8762 version of the nvidia driver.
Any help would be appreciated. |
It's not the resolution, I have a very similar error:

And it's definitely NOT a matter of resolution. In fact it happens every time I run wow, except the first one, during any given x session, restart x and it will run ok once more.
Further, my wow has only 5 fps, I'd say it's not using 3d accel AT ALL even if wine use flags are enabled...
Same nvidia drivers (only drivers that seem to work right on my machine). |

I have been running WoW with an AMD 64 for quite a while now. What issues are you having? I may be able to help

I solved my problem!
It seems that if I enable the wine virtual desktop with winecfg the problem is gone!
Apparently wine can't handle something about my linux desktop, I'm almost happy 
I only have to understand why it has 7fps with a 6600gt and glxinfo says I have 3d accel... |

Well I reverted back to 24-bit default depth at a resolution of 1280x1024 in my xorg.conf. WoW runs again but with the same problem of the open minimap causing the flickering after walking indoors. I also decided to try something Darknight mentioned and enabled the virtual desktop at a resolution of 800x600 and now I can select that resolution in-game (previously I only had access to 1280x1024.) The only problem is that I can't maximize the window so that it stretches this resolution to full screen. I'll play around some more.
One nice thing I noticed is that the sound doesn't go away after you select another Linux window. This way I can queue for battlegrounds while doing something else until I hear the BG "pop" sound. |

| You may have it run fullscreen, after all it will only use your virtual desktop, I've done just that and it's running ok, except for the fps issue... |

I found where the problem is: if I enable xinerama wow under wine is NOT accelerated.
I tried to verify this with call of duty, but call of duty seems perfectly accelerated so there must be some problem that prevents wow from finding the drivers, or using them, or whatever. |

You have a 6600 GT? Are you using Xinerama, or TwinView?
I play WoW on my 6800 GT in a wine virtual desktop with no window decorations at 1280x1024 (I love Pekwm) I then have my other monitor open for Thottbot and stuff. It works great in Twinview, I get on average 22fps (quite playable) with all settings turned up.

You got it right: 6600gt and using xinerama.
Does twinview work like xinerama, with just one big desktop? I've read some horror reports about it so I don't use it but I may give it a try if you advise it.
I use xinerama because having two desktops is not quite what I want, I'm comfortable with just one area in which I can move stuff around not having to choose where to start apps, duplicating the k panel etc...
Quake3 and UT do start fullscreen in the primary monitor, so I don't even have the problem some people report about fullscreen apps being huge and panning all the monitors. |

Twinview is just Nvidia's implementation of Xinerama. It's 1 big desktop, or two seperate desktops, if so you choose, I think. I use 1 desktop, and all xinerama compatable applications/wm's maximize to just 1 monitor. It's really customizable though, Nvidia has good documentation on it.

Hi Guys,
first of it all: Im using Xinerama, too.
Im running a 6800Ultra with 2 dfp connected and a wide desktop with XINERAMA.
Fitting into this thread-topic all i can say is i need to start a second Xserver WITHOUT Xinerama to get WoW working, otherwise ill only get two black screens.The only difference from screen 1 to screen 2 is the dragable WoW-curser, every else is BLACK. (changes never)
I would be glad if someone spots where this is reladed to 
But the main reason of my posting:
As i told im Running a 6800ultra on a dual xeon 2,8ghz system with 2gig ram with the newest release of cedega.
Im playing an Nathrezim ENDGAME Raids and often run into great problems due to LAGS or low FPS.
Could someone tell if what would be the best choice for me with cedega: D3D or OpenGL?
Further, could someone show me THE PERFECT Cedega config for my system? I tried many things myselfe but didnt get it well enough (...) |

try twinview instead of xinerama, works for me (and run winecfg and set it to run in a window).
Also, try wine in opengl instead of cedega, gives me better performance atleast.
Latest wine patch for wow is on appdb.winehq.com's listing of wow. |

I already reported the xinerama issue there, I also opened a bug (for wine, not gentoo) since wow seems the only unaccelerated application in xinerama for me.
BTW I will try twinview asap, maybe it will give me better performance too. |

hmm is weird cause at work I use twin-view and works perfect and at home I have to video cards one for each monitor and using xinerama, and is working just fine.. of course the FR is not as in windows cause of the opengl/directx thing
but is working as good as in twiwnview for me..
make sure you have all the GLX and stuff on X

Any other app is accelerated, therefore I have to suppose it's a strange interaction between xinerama, wow and wine.
The proof of this is that with twinview the accel is back in wow too, so it was indeed xinerama the source of the problem, every other game/app is running just fine with both setups. |

Wine 0.9.15, with the WoW patch doesn't compile on my AMD64 system, but every previous version has.
Also when I run the exe now (just started today) in Wine 0.9.14 patched, it just flickers between black and the Login screen saying Downloading. I think its trying to download a mini-patch, but failing in some way. |

See: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-452114-highlight-nonpersonal.html to fix you Downloading hang. I don't know why this happens, but it does once in a while.
What kind of errors are you getting with 0.9.15? I'm on an and64 and have no trouble compiling it with the WOW patch. |

Wine 0.9.15 plus a small patch to fix the mouse issue, and WoW runs smoothly. Just get my overlay package here:
| Code: | | # wget http://codav.de/kram/misc/wine-0.9.15.ebuild-with-wow-patch.tar.bz2 |
Unpack it into your portage overlay dir:
| Code: | | # source /etc/make.conf && [[ "${PORTDIR_OVERLAY}" != "" ]] && tar -xjvpf wine-0.9.15-with-wow-patch.tar.bz2 -C "${PORTDIR_OVERLAY}" |
And emerge wine:
| Code: | | # emerge "=wine-0.9.15" |
You still need to tweak the WoW configuration and correctly configure wine to make it work, but this has been discussed extensively in this topic.
