Ubuntu and WoW issue

Hey all!

I'm kinda new to Linux and my instructor is a big WoW-head and got me into it. I installed the newest 64-bit ubuntu 9.04. I installed WoW using the original 4-cd set, and copied everything over to wine from my windows partition. Using the "-opengl" command as my instructor told me, I am able to run WoW with no major issues. The only problem (or rather a "bug" as it seems) is that my characters legs often get "stuck", though the character keeps moving with no hinderance to gameplay. At first, it was quite humorous. Now its an annoyance. Triple-buffering is turned off, so I'm not really sure what the problem or "bug" is. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Andrew

I finally figured out what the problem was!! To anyone who is having the same issue, go to your Administrator, keyboard settings and turn off key repeat. I knew it was something simple!

Later,
Andrew
