Wel ik heb windows van mijn pc gekickt, ik was het rond uit beu om continu met conflicten
te zitten met mijn explorer, en of messenger en of beeldconfigguratie games die maar
niet wilde draaien onder gewone rechten en de alom bekende adminstratie rechten
als je ook maar een ding wilde verwijderen of toevoegen en zo veel meer je kent
allemaal het probleem wel, zocht dus een alternatief en heb van mijn hartje een
knal grote steen gemaakt en heb windows vista onder het poepke geschupt.
Sorry voor taal gebruik ik ben dus geen nederlander maar een vlaming,
Anyway al hoe wel ik geen A technische jongen ben en best wel handig ben
met installaties etc etc heb ik gans mijn pc niets wetende hoe linux based
besturingsprogrammas eigenijk ook werken geinstalleert blank over heel mijn
vista heen alles wat er op stond werdt ook meteen verwijdert. Ik wilde niet weten
dat er ook nog maar een bug of wat so ever op mijn harde schijf stond dus ik begin
van scratch one.
Dat gezegt zijnde werkt alles prima Kmess is geinstalleert om mijn Win messenger acount
te ondersteunen, ik heb ook mijn email acounts die verbonden zijn met mijn providor na
klein 10 minuutjes draaiende gekregen zonder problemen met evolution.
opstarten doe ik in exact 10 seconden, moet je eens met microsoft proberen tegen dat je 2
sigaretten en een tas koffie of 3 achter over hebt geslagen kan je eindelijk inloggen op je pc
en voor je acount op microsoft is opgestart dan ben je nog eens naar de wc geweest ook
(man man man) wat een verschil, nu even ter zijde gelaten dat ik microsoft gewoon een
onderdrukker vindt van heel freaking multimadia world en dat microsoft wel gezorgd heeft
dat alles in de wereld wat met pc te maken heeft om hen gaat draaien, is een bariare die ik
met andere wil doorbreken ik heb microsoft van de dag van vandaag thuis niet meer nodig
dat andere maar gaan klooien met MS rommel maar en dan is er idd een maar.
GAMES, nu ik heb zo goed als al het geen ik moet doen werken doen werken en dit zonder
enige kennis maar nu zit ik zowat vast ik wil WOW installeren maar als ik alle info in kijk
kan ik er niet echt wijs uit geraken hoe en wat er aan te beginnen nu ik ben zo ver geraakt
dat ik wel wine heb geinstalleert en vervogens wil ik de procedure verder zetten om WOW
zlef te installeren ik heb de volgende topic gebruikt om dit uit te voeren deze is echter wel in
het engels tot hier toe zie ik overal versprijd dan die uitleg en dan deze uitleg maar na tijdje
lezen niet dat ik dit erg vindt ben ik er nog niet wijzer uit. Ik volg dus dit pad
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraftThis howto is for installing and playing World of Warcraft using Wine under Ubuntu.
Wine is a free open source implementation of the proprietary Win32 API, and attempts to enable Windows applications and games to run on Unix-like operating systems.
World of Warcraft can also be played under Ubuntu by using the Wine based CrossOver Games, Cedega and PlayOnLinux. This howto, however, does not address these three.
Before you get started
In Linux, Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) facilitates faster graphics rendering, so before you begin the installation you should check whether DRI is enabled. To do this, run the following command:
glxinfo | grep rendering
You should see output similar to this:
direct rendering: Yes
If this line says "No", it means that graphics data will not be passed directly to the graphics hardware, thus significantly reducing speed at which WoW will run. This is usually caused by a configuration issue with the graphics card driver. See the troubleshooting section for elaboration.
Installing Wine
The official deb package file of Wine from WineHQ's download page, is recommended for most users, as it works almost out of the box for most people, and has a gold rating at the moment.
For full instructions on installing Wine see the Wine page.
Deb package
To install the deb you need to add the WineHQ repository and then install Wine. For additional help on adding repositories, see the Repositories page.
1.
Open a terminal(also called a console, CLI, and command prompt) and choose one of the following two commands to run, based on your version of Ubuntu:
For Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex (8.10):
sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/intrepid.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
For Ubuntu Hardy Heron (8.04):
sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/hardy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
2. Now do these three commands in a terminal:
wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install wine
3. Before proceeding to install World of Warcraft you must run winecfg at least once (it must setup the ~/.wine directory structure before you can install Windows applications into it). This is a very important step. In a Terminal window type the following:
winecfg
Select your Windows type, configure disk and removable drives, etc, then press Apply and Ok. As it closes, winecfg will create a .wine directory structure in your home folder, populating with information about drives and devices installed in your system. If you fail to do this before trying to install World of Warcraft then you'll probably see errors like the following when running winecfg in the future:
err:winecfg:apply_drive_changes unable to define devicename of 'C:'
Compiling Wine from source
Other experienced users, who are unable to make this work or just want more control over the installation, may want to try to compile Wine from source in order to play WoW. Instructions can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BuildingWineFromSourceHet bovenstaande in het groen heb ik vermoedelijk tot een goed resultaat uit gevoerd wine staat er op en heb alles prima uitgevoerd zoals het er
staat maar het onderstaande ik denk dat ik voor alle duidelijkheid een nederlandse uitleg nodig heb want ik kan het een en het andere niet zo goed plaatsen waardoor een goede installatie mogelijk zou mislukken.Installing WoW
Original WoW
If you have access to the installation discs is to copy the contents to your hard disk and run them from there. If you have the new DVDs see the note below.
* Create a convenient directory ( 'wow_install' on your Desktop for example)
* Copy all of the files from the first WoW CD to this new directory.
*
For each of the remaining WoW CD's, copy just the 'Installer Tome #.mpq' files. In the end, you should have the 'DirectX' directory, and the 'autorun.inf', 'installer.ico', 'Installer Tome.mpq', and 'Installer.exe' files from disc 1, and 'Installer Tome 2.mpq', 'Installer Tome 3.mpq', 'Installer Tome 4.mpq', and 'Installer Tome 5.mpq' from the remaining discs. Note that the 'Installer.exe' file on the first disc is different from the files of the same name on the subsequent discs; if you get the wrong one the install will fail with
Unrecognized key "options". (AttributeParser::Parse)
*
Note that on some WoW DVD's the installer executable is hidden and you need to re-mount the disc with the 'unhide' option. To do this type in a terminal:
sudo umount /dev/cdrom
sudo mount -t iso9660 -o ro,unhide /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom0/
* Start the installation by opening a terminal and running these commands:
cd /<path-to-directory>/
wine Installer.exe
Replace <path-to-directory/> with the right path to the directory where you copied all the files above.
Some dialogs during installation may appear blank or garbled, and the installer may even hang for up to 5 minutes at 100% CPU, while appearing to be doing nothing. Simply wait and click next when possible.
Note: If you have not already done so, you may want to install Microsoft's proprietary fonts, because they can solve some text related graphical glitches during installation.
Burning Crusade
The BC install is more or less the same as the base game install.
* Create a new directory separate from the directory where you copied the original game discs.
* Copy the 'Autorun.inf', 'Installer.exe', 'Installer.ico', and 'Installer Tome.mpq' files from the first Burning Crusade disc to this new directory.
* Copy just 'Installer Tome 2.mpq', 'Installer Tome 3.mpq', and 'Installer Tome 4.mpq' from the remaining install discs.
* Run the installer by opening a terminal and executing these commands:
cd /<path-to-directory>/
wine Installer.exe
Replace <path-to-directory/> with the right path to the directory where you copied all the files (the BC files, not the original WoW files).
Alternate Installation Methods
If the above isn't possible for some reason (you don't have the discs for example, or a working media drive), here's some alternate ways to install the game.
Alternative 1 (Copy from Windows):
You can also just install WoW in Windows and then copy the entire World of Warcraft folder over from your Windows installation.
Alternative 2 (Download the Entire Game):
If you have lost a CD, do not have access to a CD drive or simply would not like to bother with patching and messing with the CD's, you can download and run the installer, which is in fact the full game almost fully patched, from the blizzard downloader. They work very nicely with Wine.
Installer Downloads: Original WoW - US Version Burning Crusade - US Version (requires a valid account for log in) WoW - European clients, in all languages
In order to use the Blizzard Downloader effectively, you must 1) open certain ports on your computer and 2) enable port forwarding on your router.
Firewall Configuration for Blizzard Downloader
The easiest way to open these ports is to use the firewall program Firestarter.
*
From the command line, install Firestarter with this command: sudo apt-get install firestarter.
* When it is running, select the "Policy" tab, right-click in the Allow Service area, and select Add Rule.
*
Under port, type 6112 and make sure that the "Anyone" radio button is selected. Make a note in the comments field that this port relates to Blizzard.
*
Repeat these steps for ports 3724 and for the range 6881-6999 (which will be recognized as BitTorrent ports).
Router Configuration for Blizzard Downloader
*
Next, configure your router to forward those ports on the router to your computer only. The steps are similar to the above, but vary slighly from router to router and may be found on Blizzard's website:
http://www.blizzard.com/support/wow/?id=aww01199p Once the firewall is configured and the network port forwarding is working, run the downloader with (Burning Crusade US Version example):
wine WoW-BurningCrusade-enUS-Installer-downloader.exe
Configuration
Config.wtf
WoW uses DirectX by default, but for most people it will not perform well in this mode. If this is the case for you, then you should change it to run in OpenGL mode instead. To do this you need to find the file wtf/Config.wtf in your main WoW directory. By default it is found in /home/<username>/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/World\ of\ Warcraft/, where <username> is you computer login name. Note that since .wine begins with a period, you will not be able to see it, but you may still access it in a terminal. In the Nautilus file manager, you can press Ctrl + h to see hidden files. If config.wtf does not exist, run the game and log into a character. The game should then create the file. Open it using a text editor, and add the following line to it:
SET gxApi "opengl"
If you experience poor performance, graphical glitches, or the game does not run at all, then add the following options as well:
SET ffxDeath "0"
SET ffxGlow "0"
Note that disabling ffxGlow may also enable antialiasing for some users.
If you experience a problem with missing character and object models, and/or the login windows background is black, add:
SET M2UseShaders "0"
If you experience stuttering, bad sound or no sound what so ever, then add the following options as well:
SET Sound_SoundOutputSystem "1"
SET Sound_SoundBufferSize "150"
winecfg
If you experience stuttering, bad sound or no sound what so ever, then you must try a few things in winecfg. Just type winecfg in a terminal, press enter, and the wine configuration application window should appear and you should go to the audio tab.
For most people OSS will work better than ALSA, so you should make sure that only OSS is ticked. But for some ALSA works better, so try that as a second solution, make sure you only have one ticked at a time.
Also, refer to the Voice chat section for information on getting multiple audio streams working with OSS and ALSA (more than one program using audio at once). It will wave you grief should you ever want to listen to music and chat on Ventrilo or Teamspeak while playing, and similar.
You may also try ticking Driver Emulation or setting the Hardware Acceleration dropdown to Emulation. Remove it again if it does not help.
Registry configuration
This is a simple registry edit for Wine that either will either fix crash issues and increase framerate in game, or it will decrease the performance and even make the game crash. You should give it a try to see what is does for you, as you may always easily remove it again, if it acts negatively for you.
Open a terminal window, type regedit and press enter. This will start the Wine equivalent of the windows registry editor. If you are familiar with using the registry editor under windows then this is pretty much the same.
1.
Find this key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\
2. Highlight the wine folder in the left hand pane by clicking left on it. The icon should change to an open folder
3.
Right-click on the wine folder and select [NEW] then [KEY]
4.
Replace the text New Key #1 with OpenGL
5.
Right-click in the right hand pane and select [NEW] then [String Value]
6.
Replace New Value #1 with DisabledExtensions (Notice it's case sensitive!)
7. Then double click anywhere on the line, a dialog box will open.
8.
In the value field type GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object
Playing
Start from the Desktop Icon
Double click the icon you find on your Desktop titled World of Warcraft, this will start the launcher. If you have never used something requiring HTML rendering with Wine you will be prompted to download and install the Gecko rendering engine, you should do this as it will enable the WoW Launcher to display news.
Start from the Terminal
Starting from the terminal is simple, just enter:
wine "C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Launcher.exe"
(install when prompted about the Gecko rendering engine)
Or, dive right into the game with:
wine "C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\WoW.exe"
Gnome menu icon
You can make a Gnome menu entry for WoW by doing the following commands in a terminal:
wget
http://kde-files.org/CONTENT/content-files/41569-wow-icon-scalable.svg -O WoW.svg
sudo mv WoW.svg /usr/share/pixmaps/
gksudo gedit /usr/share/applications/wow.desktop
Add this to the text editor window, which should have appeared after the third command, change <username> in the Exec= line to your computer login username, and save:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=World of Warcraft
Exec=wine /home/<username>/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/World\ of\ Warcraft/WoW.exe
Icon=WoW.svg
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Application;Game;
StartupNotify=false
Note: Remember that you should also edit the Exec= line to reflect your WoW installation path, if you've installed to a special location.
Voice chat
If you choose to configure Wine to use OSS for sound, then you will experience an issue with making voice chat applications and WoW use sound input and output simultaneously. You need to be able to mix sound in order for this to work, but most modern onboard soundcards do not support hardware sound mixing. You will either have to get a PCI soundcard, which supports this feature, or use software mixing. The issue with software mixing comes down to the two different sound interface architectures available in Linux, OSS and ALSA.
OSS(old/legacy): Does not allow you to use software mixing. Meaning only ONE application will be able to use sound at a time.
ALSA(new): Allows software mixing. Meaning several programs can use sound simultaneously.
However, as stated previously in this howto, for some people the sound may stutter or be otherwise corrupted when using ALSA, this may force you to use OSS.
So you see the problem:
* WoW runs in Wine, ergo uses OSS
* Ventrilo runs in Wine, ergo uses OSS
*
The Linux version of TeamSpeak is based on OSS
Only one of these applications will be able to use sound at a time, but this can be solved by using alsa-oss, which channels OSS applications through ALSA, making them then work more or less like regular ALSA programs.
ALSA-OSS is installed by running this command:
sudo apt-get install alsa-oss
And then one uses it by starting the programs with the "aoss" command, something like this:
aoss /path-to-program/TeamSpeak
aoss wine /path-to-program/Ventrilo.exe
aoss wine /path-to-program/WoW.exe
Remember that both the voice chat program and WoW need to be run with the aoss command in front.
