    Whining About WINE

    Not really just try to get WOW to work and it's really confusing! I don't have WOW installed on my windows OS partition, it's on a separate partition I call "Games", either of which is dual booted with Linux. So now I am copying all the files from the CD's to my Linux partition under a folder called "WOW" in Home somebody stop me if this is stupid and not going to work After that I don't know what to do I'll have to read more from this link [Wine] but it's like reading Chinese Hopefully I can get this to work, the only thing limiting me is my lack of knowledge about linux. never thought I'd want to get away from windows but if 7 is what MS has to offer, I'll go linux.

    I'm not a gamer either. Use a console for that. Maybe this link will make it easier to install WOW if you have the DVD.

    Just found you this also. It instructions for copying WOW from Windows.

    Wine - WoWWiki - Your guide to the World of Warcraft

    Just make sure you have ntfs-3g installed. Do a search in Synaptic Package manager to make sure it's installed first.
