SOLVED: WoW fails to start, dual-TMU (not a 3d-card prob)

Post by AapoAlas »

Hi! I just installed and updated WoW to the newest version. Earlier on, when I started WoW, I could log in normally and start the patch downloading from the game itself with ease.
Now, with the newest version, when I try to start the game, it just crashes. If I'm running fullscreen, it will cause my X to kind of bug and only display the upper-left quarter of my desktop, forcing me to reboot (due to another problem which prevents me from restarting X).

If I'm running WoW on Windowed mode (config'd in the Config.wtf file), it starts the window but immeadiately closes it, before anything is drawn.

Starting WoW from terminal causes the following output:

At the very least the SegFault seems to have something to do with the lib32's (I'm running 64bit Linux), but as I'm not that experienced, I don't know what to do about it. Anyone else know better?

P.S: Here's my Config.wtf file's contents: http://pastebin.com/mba9634

EDIT: Yes, this is just a straight copypasta from my post on the WoW 2.4.x AppDB-comments.

New info: Just happened to realize that I had misspelled the OpenGL -setting in my Config.wtf, so that's solved. BUT! Now, when starting up WoW, it complains about needing dual-TMU support.
This is obviously something that wine cooks up, since my friend running on the exact same laptop as me and Windows Vista can play World of Warcraft normally.

My graphics card is GeForce 9800M GT, so there shouldn't be a problem there.

Oh well, not that I think about it, it might not necessarily be a wine problem, it could also be with the nvidia drivers, but don't know about that.
Anyone know if wine could cause this, and if it could / does, what can I do about it?

EDIT: Solved it, I'm an idiot :D "WTF, where's my 32bit libs for nvidia-utils? Whoops...
