Cant run WoW

Asked by Valter

I am trying to install WoW on my Ubuntu 9.04.
I have Wine set up and for it.
When i got to run the install it says this on my terminal
melodyblade@UndeadPunisher:~/Desktop/WoW$ wine installer.exe --opengl
fixme:ole:OleCreateStaticFromData (not shown), stub!

And also says this on the pop up...
No installer data found. Please contact Blizzard for support.

Also my computer wont eject the disc.

:(
Any help is well appreciated

Try to extract all dvd into your system folder... like ../Desktop/WoW/ later right click on Installer.exe and Open with wine.

Thats exactly what i did
~/Desktop/WoW$ is a directory
I have Codeweavers now and will try it with that but it wont work thru wine.

best way i think is to use Codeweavers Trial then run it on WINE. I installed Crossover games and downloaded it and then it wouldn't run on Crossover so i ran it on WIne and it worked perfectly :)
So download them all with the trial version crossover games. then run it with WINE and its free!!!
