I have been having the same problem with wine since I updated to Fedora 15 (Gnome3 desktop) wine 1.3.19. I found this:

But I havent tried it out yet probably tonight sometime.

It seems to have cleared things up. I can now use the launcher.exe to start wow.

Great to hear/read

I'm still messing around, last Fed15 install, i could not install gecko, this time i cant apply the ie7 tweak because of some 32/64 issue..

Hi

I found rather by accident that if u set the "windows version" to vista or win7 it will cause wine to crash.
I currently have mine set to windows xp

In order for for the game to workit needs the 32bit wine and all the 64 wine stuff removed.
(note: removing and reinstalling wine does not remove the programs installed under wine)

I do not have an intel video card so the following may not be helpful. But in order to run the game on a 64 bit fedora you may want to load the 32 bit driver/lib (I believe xorg-x11-dvr-intel.i686). I have an nvidia card and that is what it takes to get the game to run on my system.

Right, well i've installed F15 completly new, in 32bit.
WoW starts now in either: openGL mode or in DirectX mode, however, openGL still causes WoW to crash after one or two minutes.
Both modes do have a "jumping" mouse, which is pretty annoying if you're used to walk around with the mouse

Is that 32bit grafic driver somewhere mentioned in Leighs posts?
As i neither have ATI nor nVidia, i didnt read these yet.

Hi,

I run wow in "windowed full screen" this seems to be the fix for the mouse issues.
You can reference here: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManage...sion&iId=23352

Yes, I have an nvidia card and it requires both 64 and 32 bit lib to run. I dont know that much about the intel graphics driver.

I've updated to wine 1.3.21, which fixed that issue too, but the black fields below chars are back (solved: directX play = enable shaders)
gpu is intel chipset i915
