Have you checked (maybe through synaptic?) to be sure that you have the
32 bit version of wine and the 32 bit version of the video drivers? On
a 64 bit system your video can work fine with the 64 bit drivers and
seem like everything is okay. But for 32 bit programs through wine,
such as WoW, you have to have 32 bit drivers for it use.
