so i did some more searching and found that this site has some useful troubleshooting tips. i tried the following.

editing my Config.wtf again and added -
SET ffxDeath "0"
SET ffxGlow "0"
SET ffxSpecial "0"
SET UIFaster "x"


for SET UIFaster "x" x =
0 – this turns off all ui acceleration
2 – enables partial uI acceleration only.
3 – enables all ui acceleration.

i set mine to “2″ to test and see if it works.

this site also recommended putting .dll files into the wine source directory. i grabbed all 4 and put them in /home/mike/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32

here are the links they have to the .dll downloads -

• msvcp60.dll (MD5: 6050bcc1b23f3df7a1876cbdcbac8232)
• mfc42.dll (MD5: 7e4d1b552ee1dfa859ba9033b3670590)
• riched20.dll
• riched32.dll

i also ran winecfg and went to the graphics tab and unchecked allow pixel shader

lastly, i removed the opengl registry fix i added in a previous post.

i got the log in screen to load nicely, with sound -

it worked great, in the city of ironforge i ranged from 5-10 fps. outside of any major city the fps would be up over 10. i also joined a battleground (arathi basin) and the fps stayed around 6fps. it was tolerable but by no means super awesome. next i want to try and find a way to get my fps up to what it normally is under windows, which ranges from 28-36 fps

so i removed the lines i added to the Config.wtf and left the registry change i made and tried to launch world of wow again. here are the results -

so then i tried to run wow using -opengl
mike@elizebeth:~$ wine /home/mike/.wine/drive_c/wow/Wow.exe -opengl
the game opens and goes to the login screen, sound works, but video is awful and was the same as my previous post.
