Wine & WoW 2.4.2 = OpenGL failure.

[Antikorper]

Alrighty, so here's my conundrum. I've just gotta my Fedora reconfigured after a horrible motherboard frying, and now my world of warcraft refuses to work. Here's the error I'm getting: "Your 3D accelerator card is not supported by World of Warcraft. Please get a card with dual-TMU support."

Here's what I'm using:

AMD 3500+ 64 @ 2.2GHz
1.5gb RAM
Nvidia 7900GS/256mb

Latest livna drivers (169.12-8)
Kernel ver: 2.6.24.7-92
Feodra 8 x86_64
Wine ver: 1.0-rc2

[aleksei@PumpkiN ~]$ glxinfo | grep direct
direct rendering: Yes


I should also note that it works under Windows just fine, 'cause I booted into it immediately after getting my error, and tada, it worked.
Also to be noted, other things work just fine such as videos, visualisations, etcetera.

Edit: One more teeng.
I've applied just about every fix I could find on the internet, and that I could remember from when I last had this problem (1.12.x)
This includes -opengl and --opengl switches, changing the config around for the gxApi setting, setting my bitdepths and colordepths, so on and so forth.

Have you installed the 32 bit Nvidia libs ? ( wine is a 32 bit app so it requires the 32 bit Nvidia libs to render )

I just tried to install the nvidia-x11-drv-32bit libs and it won't install, erroring with saying "nvidia-x11-drv conflicts with xorg-nvidia-drv"

Post ( it isn't clear what driver you are using , freshrpms or livna ! )

rpm -qa |grep nvidia

[Antikorper]

Ah. my apologies. I'm using the ones from the Livna repo.

rpm -qa |grep nvidia as requested:
[aleksei@PumpkiN ~]$ rpm -qa |grep nvidia
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs-169.12-1.lvn8
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-169.12-1.lvn8
kmod-nvidia-169.12-8.lvn8
kmod-nvidia-2.6.24.7-92.fc8-169.12-8.lvn8

Try

su
yum install xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i386 --exclude=nvidia-x11-drv

And in the spirit of good old Uncle Benny, bloody marvelous!

Thanks a bunch, Leigh. It worked.
