@cokacutter Hi, yeah it's becuase in linux we dont get the software updates like dx10/11 as fast as windows and not all the software needed, and video driver and the list goes on. if you want to gaming. the best way is still windows :(. but there are solutions if you want you can use like Crossover games/ and an other one i cant remember the name of xD, software that increase the gaming experinse in linux and works alot better. i hope this helps ^^

whenever i click on it to download it, it pops up and i click install and it pops up, but when it goes to the end user liscence agreement it turns grey and nothing is there to click on..what do i do?

@SnowboundC0DY thats strange. you should try the playonlinux version of installing it. go to playonlinux website and download and install that then just install wow from there alot easier.

@Ubuntugeeks what you said is true but from my understanding, ubuntu has and has always had a large incompatibility with amd hardware. now it seems to be getting better, but its still not as good as intel. i once had a intel computer and support for it was great.

@WhoAskedYouu You could try to install it with playonlinux. playonlinux are using scripts to install so they install additional software.

When I double click on the installer, I get a box that says this;

"No installer data could be found. If this problem persists, please contact Blizzard Technical Support."

I downloaded the game client from battlenet.
