WOW Under Linux

Still trying to get WOW to run under Linux.

There is a new driver for my ATI Radeon® Xpress 1150 Graphics card.

Here are some instructions for installing WOW under Ubuntu.

It seems that I need to have direct rendering.

The newest driver does not support DRI. Is DRI direct rendering?

DRI stands for Direct Rendering Infrastructure. It allows software to get around X11 and write directly to the graphics card.

The current ATI driver does support direct Rendering.

glxinfo | grep rendering
direct rendering: Yes

I am going to assume that the one just released does also. It would make little sense if it doesn't.

OK, I am now ready to install the newest ATI driver on my portable.
