I just downloaded WOW with wine and im having problems getting it to run

Asked by Vovosc

When i click on the icon on desktop the launcher pops up like its supposed to and when i push play it goes black than comes back to desktop and takes like 3 mins before going to login screen. When there the screen is frozen like kinda slowed it will be frozen and i move the mouse and 2 to 3 min later the cursor moves and freezes again its almost like i am getting a framerate of 1 frame every 2 min i have gone through the install instructions in the ubuntu documentation page and tried the config if i dont change wtf file to opengl i have free movement of cursor but no screen when i change i have frozen screen thing but the sound works perfect both ways
