  • I'm sorry to sound totally clueless here, but is the poster of this video running WoW in a virtual environment, or Wine? I haven't used Slack since the 7 days (high school) and it wasn't until I stumbled upon this video that I even knew it was possible to play games like WoW on Linux. I used to be able to count the games that I could run in Wine on one hand. Has that changed, or is WoW just so old that it is finally receiving some support? What about Source games?

  • @Rachielizaboo This video was posted 3 years ago... take a look at some of my newer ones such as "Installing Windows apps on Ubuntu"!

  • whats the size of those monitors and of which manufacturer

    looks like u are working on a super computer

  • @RanjitSngh Hehe,, mabe it's just the power of Linux. The monitor on the left is a 20" 4x3 1600x1200 and the one on the right is a 24" widescreen 1920x1200. The computer is an Athlon 4400+ (dual core) with a Geforce 6800 Ultra.... it's far from modern hardware

see all

  • you just improved it, i know spanish and he actually said:

    is very nice to use 2 monitors at some point maybe you do, I have slackware tmb

  • Get the 1.1.xx version from the repo on wineHQ, make sure you have the -opengl option, and the fonts installed, and it runs like you have windows, you can change res, switch into windowed mode, the lot... seriously, the new wine is awesome.

  • well i had my wine like completely tweaked for BC, then when wotlk launched my framerate took a dump...i suppose its from all their new improvements, i have not updated my wine in a long time and thats probably it. I have a 8600gt

  • it works well for me too (WoW) I heard it was difficult to get running, but It works flawlessly in ubuntu 8.04 with wine. I don't play though, just relished the challenge, or lack there of. (free trial)

  • He said:

    It's really cool to use 2 monitors, maybe some day I'd do it, I also have slackware

  • No. It's spanish, luckily my first language :)
