Re: I can't run a game server as a systemd user unit

Just re-read this and I see its a VPS server so maybe there's no way to get it to work.

Re: I can't run a game server as a systemd user unit

It looks like the process can't grab the X display that is already in use by the logged in user.
Try changing the command that starts the process to something like:
env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY wine C:\\users\\user\\Documents\\rtrserver\\Server3000.exe

Re: Overwatch won't work on anything newer than staging 5.9

I think this is an Arch specific problem and perhaps Gentoo. Arch still uses only gcc to compile wine for their packaged binaries. Since many of the wine components have been reworked to compile as PE binaries, it is recommended to use mingw while compiling. I had similar problems to you with Battle...

Re: World of warcraft will not start

I currently run Wow using wine-staging 5.6 + dxvk 1.7 on Arch. All newer versions of wine are problematical currently. I suggest you downgrade to wine-staging 5.6 and create a new WINEPREFIX with dxvk added. For PopOS, I think you will need to get the 5.6 version using aptitude? Using nvidia drivers...

Re: World of Warcraft 7.3.5 (most recent) not showing

OpenGL has not been supported in WoW for a long time now. Also, DX9 support is poor these days. However, WoW runs nicely using DX11 and wine-staging. I am currently using a patched version of staging, wine-staging-pba-git-3.4 and the performance with DX11 is excellent. https://github.com/acomminos/w...

Re: CEF on Wine

You may have better results using the staging version of wine, although that version is not officially supported here. Currently wine-staging 2..21. The staging version has a number of upstream patches which also included CEF functionality from version 2.18 onwards. Note that wine-devel is not wine-...

Re: World of Warcraft 7.3.2 freezes randomly

This sounds like a hardware fault rather than a wine problem. Have you tried using a different version of wine to see if the problem persists? e.g. wine-staging 2.19 or 2.21. I had a similar problem with WoW freezing in a similar fashion about a year ago. After much head scratching and frustration, ...

Re: battle.net keeps crashing on me

Check to see if your distro has lib32-gnutls and lib32-libldap installed. I had a similar problem when either of those libraries weren't present. The package names on xubuntu may differ slightly to the ones I quoted as I'm using Arch.

I have had a similar problem with the latest 2.9 staging. Running World of Warcraft produced similar fixme errors, followed by a freeze and a fatal exeption. However, I suspect that this is a problem with the wine-staging-2.9.1 package provided by Arch, rather than a bug in wine. I downloaded the wi...

Re: Problem with Wine and GLSL shader on Nvidia.

You are running a very old WoW client, the current one being v7.2. There have been a lot of changes to the WoW graphical engine since then. Update the WoW client to the current one and it should work fine. I haven't tested it with wine-staging 2.5.1 but it was working fine with 2.4.1 and now with 2....

It isn't really a feature of Wine but more to do with the linux/Unix way of handling users. Each user gets their own /home folder by default and all of their apps/data go in there.
