World of Warcraft not running

Hi

I installed WoW with wine but I cannot get it running. It always fails with "Failed to find a suitable display device" when I press the "play" button. I'm using the current nvidia and wine version from the repos.

Wine is complaining about missing direct rendering:

fixme:mshtml:HlinkTarget_SetBrowseContext (0x15dbc8)->((nil))
fixme:shdocvw:OleObject_Close (0x148478)->(1)
err:winediag:X11DRV_WineGL_InitOpenglInfo Direct rendering is disabled, most likely your OpenGL drivers haven't been installed correctly

but I have direct rendering enabled:

~ $ glxinfo | grep rendering
direct rendering: Yes

any idea?

Re: World of Warcraft not running

Did you install the package  lib32-nvidia-utils?
