WoW runs *only* as root (openSUSE 11.1, GeForce 8800GTS)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Before I say anything, I should probably say that I do realize that I should not be running wine as root, however for the purpose of debugging I tried it anyways ... and to my surprise found it worked.

1 The situation
First of all, this is the same installation, using the same configuration file on the same computer, etc. As a normal user Wow.exe does not even start (note that Launcher.exe does for instance) but as a root user it not only stars but works smoothly.

2 The enviroment
OS: Linux opensuse 2.6.27.19-3.2-default #1 SMP 2009-02-25 15:40:44 +0100 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Wine: wine-1.1.9 (but also tried the last 2 snapshots)
Graphics card: GeForece 8800GTS
Graphics driver: 180.29 (Linux-x86_64)

3 The (error) messages

3.1 As normal user (does not work):

Code:
user@opensuse111:~/ISO/World of Warcraft> winedbg Wow.exe -opengl 
X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  128 (GLX)                                       
  Minor opcode of failed request:  3 (X_GLXCreateContext)                          
  Value in failed request:  0x21                                                   
  Serial number of failed request:  137                                            
  Current serial number in output stream:  137


And nothing after that.

3.1 As root user (works)

Code:

4. Additional information
Once WoW runs (as root) everything in game seems to work, except for sound, but I suspect this is due the use of Pulsaudio in openSUSE 11.1.

5. The question
What can I do? Running as root isn't smart, but perhaps it's possible to give certain permissions to certain (NVidia?)-files and then things will magically work again?

6. Things I've tried
- Every version of Wine I could get my hands on.
- Removing .wine folder
- Every possible combination of options in Config.wtf
- Repairs.exe utility
- Reinstalling NVidia drivers, kernels, rebooting, twice, every time.
- Copy all files from NTFS to Ext3 partition.
- Run as root (oops, that works!).
- Run it again using Vista (works too, but not what I want ;) ).
