Fresh install of Fedora 13 64 bit, "Failed to init. Dir

[Larsey]

I've just reinstalled Fedora and really wanted to get my hands dirty with a little wine+SC2 action... But I'm having problems.

I just copied it from my windows partition and started toying with wine (did a regular su -> yum install wine).

At first I got it up and running but it was so sluggish... after a little investigation I found out i had no 3d drivers so i went and got those.

But now I'm not able to start starcraft 2 at all! I've tried reinstalling wine

Versions:
Wine 1.2
NVIDIA 195.36.31
Kernel 2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.x86_64

Anyone know some magic? Really would love not to dual boot all the time.

I've noticed that SC2 has gold rating @ wine 1.3, does this mean 1.2 will not do it? i guess 1.3 is not ready for the package installer yet, some fancy tutorial to get this to work?

Kernel 2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.x86_64

SC2 was affected by the same kernel bug as World of Warcraft. Either upgrade to 2.6.35, patch your current kernel, or downgrade to 2.6.32.

Hmm... I had the "access violation" bug last night, but i updated my whole system and got this other bug.

When i start SC2 a windows tells me that im missing Direct3D and I had i working (sluggish)... what i did:

1) reinstalled Fedora 13 64bit
2) installed wine with "yum install wine"
-got version 1.2 (so if i want 1.3 i would have to build it myself?)
3) ran SC2 but quickly realized I had no 3D driver (glxgears gave me 400-800fps)
-i was able to run SC2 but it was a rather sluggish experience you could imagine without real 3d support.
4) installed nvidia drivers
5) tried to run SC2 again but now it tells me Direct3D is missing/need reinstallation

What do I do?

After fixing this I'm sure i get into the other problems, but they I know how to solve.

Make sure you have the necessary 32 bit libraries installed for your graphics driver.
