World of Warcraft Forum

I used Fedora 7 and Crossover with an ATI Radeon 9550 and the sad truth is that I can get it to install but it runs way to slow to use and on Ubuntu I was able to get it up and running like twice but I am not a huge fan of Ubuntu mainly due to the fact it is a Debian based system and I am used to an Redhat based system. Also for some reason the Radeon xorg driver works fine for 3D out of the box but the Direct Rendering capabilities of my card are not there so this may be the issue as well.

My Point is are there other Fedora users our there with a similar ATI card that may have gotten this bad boy to work in Crossover

I have fedora 7 and a similar ATI radeon 1300. when i try to run the the game its like a super lag.. is there anything i am forgetting something? i have put the lattest Wine on..please if anyone can point me in the right path??

Same problem using various versions of SUSE. Changed to an nVIDIA card and it works well. I hvae never been able to get this to work acceptaby with ANY ATI card. Disappointing since most of my machines use ATI

The current fglrx drivers cause a world of problems for us. The short version is they reserve the same memory address space that some Windows programs want to use. The nVidia drivers do not use these memory regions.

Hopefully the recently announced Linux drivers from AMD/ATI will fix these problems, as there is nothing we can do on our side to work around them.
