Wine and WoW: Severe Graphical Corruption

I am running the ATI proprietary drivers (Radeon 4890) and the Wine package from the repos. When I run WoW through wine I experience terrible graphical corruption:

I should note that my Catalyst Conrol center does not launch.
Any help with this?

Yes, I have tried both of those. I read through the entire arch wiki entry on WoW and followed it exactly, no success. I have also tried directx mode just in case it would prefer that, still corruption.
I previously used Ubuntu and had no issues whatsoever. Not complaining, I just know that at one point it did work with my video card. That was the lucid build so it would have been 10.04 catalyst drivers?

  • Wine and WoW Cataclysm beta.

    Hello all,
    Cataclysm used to work on this install, but now does not.   I know cataclysm is in beta, so it is unsupported, but my none beta wow works perfectly.
    What happens is, I copied my cataclysm install from my working windows box.  Launched cataclysm on Arch and it worked.  Played like that for a couple days.  blizzard had a small update at which point I got the following error, which I will post below.  I then ran Cataclysm in windows, updated and then recopied to arch.  This again, worked...until yesterday.   I played in the AM, and then when I came to play in the evening, I started getting the error below.  I recopied from windows, but that did not work.
    Is this something that can be fixed via a patch to wine or something on my system?  or is it a "wait until it's released" type of thing?  THe only reason I ask is, WoW works, Cataclysm did work but now doesn't

  • Severe graphic problems on Intel iMac (2007)

    iMac 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (white, 2007)
    Works OK in OS X 10.6.7 in Safe Boot mode, but with regular startup is unusable and experiences severe graphic problems and freezes, such as:
    Spurious lines across the screen and in various application windows.
    Mail window breaks up into a patchwork and mail refuses to quit
    Safari window displays severe artifacts and locks up
    Dock severely distorted; some icons extremely garbled and unrecognizable
    We tried erasing and reinstalling OS 10.6, up to 10.6.7, restoring only the primary user, but the same problems persist. No applications other than from the installation disk were installed.
    iMac originally came with OS X 10.4. Upgraded to 10.5, then later to 10.6. Since upgrading to 10.6 (now 10.6.7), have had increasing problems with display artifacts. Now it's so bad we can't operate unless we go to Save Boot. Then, it seems to work fine, but Safe Boot turns off sound output, so iTunes and other audio capabilities are lost.
    Since it works OK under Safe Boot, what items could be removed to restore proper operation?
    Is there a way to restore sound output while operating in Safe Boot?
    Is it just a bad idea to upgrade to MacOS X 10.6 on a computer that came with 10.4?
    I'm considering erasing and returning to the original MacOS X 10.4 installation, but I'm concerned that photos in iPhoto will not be compatible with the OS 10.4 version of iPhoto.
    Hope someone can help. Thanks.

    Thanks.
    Or buy a new one.
    It passes the Apple Hardware Test, as well as TechTool Pro hardware tests. But clearly something is wrong, and worse than when it was even a few weeks ago. I even tried erasing and reverting Tiger, and it was better, but still had some obvious artifacts and stability issues. Apparently not a drive problem either, since it occurs when running from various external drives as well.
    Appreciate the help.

  • [SOLVED] Graphic Corruption with 3D and Wine 1.3.8 + Catalyst 10.11

    Hello!
    I'm getting graphic corruption with 3D games on my Arch Linux configuration using Wine and Catalyst. Tried World of Warcraft (also with opengl rendering) and Guild Wars - graphics look stretched and teared.
    Using ATI Mobility Radeon HD4570.
    Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    I get same problem with guildwars in fullscreen when entering character select. I have to ctrl-alt-F1 to tty then back to get rid of the garbled graphics. Then my characters vanishes except for their armor/effects. Going into windowed mode stops the garbling of the graphics but the bodyless avatars remain. There is one error stands out in wine output but can't find anything specific to this error that helps.

    In addition to these, sometimes there's also a white block under the menu bar and weird graphic corruptions around shadows.
    I received a Wacom graphic tablet for Christmas but apart from that no new drivers have been installed. Also, Opera has been crashing when I press a down or backspace key (though only sometimes) but that's probably unrelated.

  • How to recover a corrupted MSWord Document - corrupted graphics / corrupted tables

    Hello i am hoping to find someone who can guide me in recovering a word document for me... I was working on it had my auto save set to every 4 mins and all
    was well. closed ms word normally only to find the next time i open i get "a table in this document has been corrupted..." 
    Just to be clear i know all about word open and repair and recovering the last saved file etc. Those are not working. I get my file back but several graphics and
    tables are missing/messed up. 
    I am hoping that someone has some insight into this (maybe some document repair software that works well) and can help me restore the document or at least open
    it somehow with the original pics showing so that at least i know how to make changes to the new document. 
    Hope this makes sense. very urgent.

    
    If you're using Windows 7, the built-in shadow copy centre may have an older and uncorrupted version of your file.
    Launch Explorer, right-click the folder that contained the document and select Properties.
    If you see a Previous Versions tab then click that.
    If all is well then you'll see a list of entries for the folder, going back days, or maybe weeks.
    Double-click one with a date when you know the document was readable, and try opening this older version.
    Save it with a new name, and then repeat the process with later folder entries until you reach the point where the file became corrupted.
    If methods above didn’t work for you, you can use undelete tools like Any Data Recovery Pro (http://www.any-data-recovery.com/product/datarecoveryprofessional.htm)
    or Revuca (http://www.piriform.com/recuva/features) to help you find old Office temporary files. After that, rename the TMP extension to match the real document format, and then try opening it to see what you've recovered.

  • Graphics Corruption in Some Apps - Problem with Geforce GT750

    Hi
    I am recently facing a graphics corruption problem with my 2013 MBPr. Yesterday I noticed that the window that shows the mail in Mail.app suddenly showed just some noise (just some strange colors). I restarted the app and it was gone. Then I installed a game named "Tales from the Borderlands". On the menu of the game I noticed the corruption again. Every time I would exit and rerun the game, the distortion would randomly change. Here are some examples:
    The problem appeared throughout the game too.
    Then I forced "Integrated Only" using a gfxCardStatus to use Intel Iris Pro instead of Geforce GT750. I started the game and the problem was gone. I tried some more times again by switching GPUs and every time I noticed that the problem is with Geforce GT750 and Intel Iris Pro has no problem.
    Any ideas what is causing the problem and what should I do? Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hi Tormirez,
    I can't believe my eyes.. I actually was afraid this might happen.
    Since I've been following the 2011 MBP forum after i had my MBP repaired (reflow by someone near Antwerp, Belgium), I've been learning some specific things about the very likely nature of these GPU issues.
    All these issues seem to be related to the replacement of leaded solder by nearly pure tin solder + not soldering according to the best profile (temperature vs time).
    The factor of time saving = money saving may very well play a role here.
    When you consider the nature of that leaded solder problem versus the soldering profiles, it's not hard to imagine that the problem isn't just in the 2011 model range, but may actually have started FROM that range...! I've already heard that some 2012 models also failed in a similar way.
    It may all be quite logical; tin solder needs a roughly 60ºC higher temperature to get into full liquid state then leaded solder.
    As the cheapest way to produce boards is probably rolling entire boards through ovens, melting the parts on it, it would require very precise monitoring of temperatures UNDER the CPU and GPU, to be SURE you have a full flow going on.
    But, at the same time, as you're cooking ALL components around 240ºC, they may have chosen not to stay at this temperature long enough. Or, maybe they stop at 240ºC, while 242ºC might be the minimum required temperature to guarantee full flow.
    Etc.. It's a very complicated mix of factors that determines if small or large batches of board could contain errors at all or not.
    But it may at least be called "bizarre" that these solder errors are found in tens of thousands 2011 MBPs, but also in 2012 models, and in the PS4 and also other brand Windows PCs!!
    If you want to test your GPU hard, download GpuTest OSX x64 0.7.0 from ( geeks3d . com / gputest ) and run the FurMark based stress test on HD resolution for 30-60 mins straight, then turn your machine off completely for 15-30 mins (until it's really cold, put it down on some cold stone floor might help), then repeat several times.
    If the same problem would be hidden in there as in the 2011 models, this is the way to get it triggered soon.
    If you ask me, this might be the first report of the same problem in the 2013 series.....
    Question; do you game a lot? If you answer yes, then it would pretty much make a connection to this similar problem I think!
    I'm curious about the results of the stress test!

  • Macbook 2009 Not working properly [Error -50 and other several issues]

    Hello there!
    I am having several issues with my Macbook, they all showed unexpectedly. Most applications would not work, such as Disk Utility or Pages. Safari couldn't load any webpage, just after a long time it was able to display them. Also, I was having some kind of error -50 when trying to move or delete any file, and iTunes was showing the following message; "iTunes can't verify the identity of the server "ax.itunes.apple.com". The certificate for this server is invalid. You might be connecting to a server that is pretending to be "ax.itunes.apple.com". I couldn't turn off the computer either, when I tried to doing so it wouldn't do anything, I had to press the power button to turn it off. After that, I turned the computer on, everything showed up as normal but after a few seconds later the computer suddenly turned off, I tried again but I got the same result. Afterwards, I tried in recovery mode, and weirdly, it didn't show any problem. I ran disk utility and verified the hard drive but it says it's working perfectly. The SMART status also says the hard drive is fine.
    What could this mean? All these problems appeard suddenly, I've never had any of those issues before.
    I have a late 2009 Macbook with Mavericks Installed,
    4GB of RAM,
    A 320GB Seagate Hard drive,
    And a 250MB Graphics Card.
    Thanks for your help!

    Hello there!
    Thanks for your reply! I have no anti-virus software installed, but I have (rather said, had) CleanMyMac though. I installed the demo version and ran it only once. I was curious about it, I had no idea it could make as much damage as MacKeeper.
    Also, I scaned again my internal Hard Drive with Disk Utility using the OS X Installation DVD, and according to the report, the partition where the operative system is located is corrupted. Disk Utility tried to repair it but failed, and the most reliable option was to reformat the disk. I proceeded to reformatting it but unfortunately the process was not succesful - I got an error that reads; "POSIX reports: The operation couldn’t be completed. Cannot allocate memory". I tried to reformat the disk using the terminal, but I was only able to erase it, not to format it. I did a research and I found out the problem might be the SATA cable, (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3507546).
    Could that explain also the weird behaviour when I was using the computer? I guess my best bet now is to get a new SATA cable.

  • Graphic corruption, motherboard causing it?

    Hello all, I have a MSI K8T-Neo FISR2R KT800 motherboard with a amd64 3.0+ Ghz CPU, Gainward GF6800GT and SB Audigy. The problem started about 1-2 months ago when suddenly small parts of my screen on the desktop went corrupted momentarly. However, this didnt occur too often and I didnt give it much attention.
    Anyhow, about 3 days ago the problem reached its climax. The corruption showed itself in several games wich would result in a freeze and eventually, a reboot. My first thought was that it was OS related, so I reformated my harddrive and installed the latest drivers in hope to get rid of this problem. Right now the problem is that when I run games or certain applications, the screen is black (although the monitor does not go to powersave mode) while the program/game runs normally. The video output has gone away, so to say. Also some winamp visualizations are rendered as black or corrupted. I changed the videocard to a GForce FX 5200 and the same problems remains.
    However, If i change the rendering device in unreal tournament 2004 to openGL, then the game runs normally. My directX is 9.0c. What could be wrong here? I dont have anything OC'ed, and I have excellent cooling on both my CPU and GPU. my PSU gives 400W and thats more than enough i belive (if it was a power related issue, then the problems would have ceased with FX 5200 since it dosent require a power wire attached to it).
    Could it be the motherboard that has gone bad? in that case, why can it render some graphics and some not at all?
    TIA

    Quote from: Tiresmoke on 28-November-05, 01:02:43
    Hmmm never saw one do that yet. Power? Yes it could be but I don't think so in this case where the second vid card that uses less power does the same. Motherboard? I would not think that it can selectively corrupt just a certain section of the screen. The Motherboard does not create a screen matrix. It sends stuff to the video card more in line with a stream of data over several pipelines. While that is an oversimplification it gets you to visualize how it works.
    There is one more device in the chain though that could mess up consistantly at the matrix level and that is the monitor. I think I would considure that before I would the MB.
    Just my humble opinion
    that sounds like a unlikely cause, considering the freeze i mentioned earlier but i did however try with another monitor, and the problem remained.
    Lets see... if both the GPU's are fine, the mobo seem to be unlikely to be defect, and no recent BIOS changes has been done, what else could be the cause? I think it could be the software but since this is a fresh install and I shoved in new drivers and all...
    Still it dosent explain how those small graphic corruptions on the desktop escalated to complete freezes and eventually a complete black screen... 

  • Graphic corruption p7n diamond

    I have had a p7n diamond MB for quite some time now as has my wife, since day one we have experienced the graphics corruption problem so many speak of. Our problem does not always happen when playing movies, sometimes it can happen just when viewing jpeg files or even just renaming files in explorer. We are running xp home, I also run xp 64 and this graphic problem is not predictable, days or weeks can go by with no problem, but sometimes we can get it several times a day.
    I have taken some screen shots of what the corruption looks like with the use of the Prt Scr key and then pasting the clipboard into a paint program and then saving, no easy task when this corruption is present. I have made sure all my drivers are up to date, even gone back a few revisions on some, recently I flashed my MB bios to 1.4 but still the graphic corruption happens at random. Never when I am playing 3d games like fallout 3 or similar.
    When I did flash my bios I did not turn off power and pull plug after I flashed and did not press the cmos reset button near the IO panel, was that needed, and if so even after flashing and booting now several times can I just power down, pull plug and now reset cmos or do I need to reinstall 1.4 bios again ?  Sorry if this question is noobish but I am just about ready to give up on this MB

    Well Well now we are slowly running out of options. Personally I have never tried to stabilize my P7N Diamond in Windows XP, so this is the max stability we can achieve I think in Windows XP. I recommend you to upgrade your OS to windows vista or windows 7 as soon as possible,the board can me made perfectly stable under these OS.Haven't you thought about it yet?
    Sorry to say, but if its stable in Vista and 7, why cant it be done in xp???
    Its a load of rubbish, imo, to make someone go to another OS, if XP, which is one of the most stable MS OS at this time, cant be run stable.
    Vista can be a horror, I talk out of experience, since I had it since day one, 7 is fairly new and thus still pretty expensive and these people are, if im correct, on a budget.
    1, do you have new sata cables at hand??
    I saw that one of the last times it happened you had Winrar running and again when formatting a drive, so it seems to happen when you use your HD a lot.
    If I remember correct, those can be faulty too (loose contacts, not shielded very well, bad wiring internally) and cause similar things, they dont cost much and is well worth thinking about.
    2, do you still have that pesky Creative soundcard??
    If so, remove it (best option) or disable it and remove all its drivers and stuff, creative can be a pain, especially those drivers and try again.
    Use Driver Sweeper (freeware) to get completely rid of all its drivers, look here:
    http://downloads.guru3d.com/Guru3D---Driver-Sweeper-(Setup)_d1655.html
    Ive seen people with creative cards getting all sorts of troubles, including myself and after they removed it, all was fine.
    If I recall correct, it was already a problem on your boards predecessor, the P6N diamond and your board isnt that different, it runs the newer Yorkfields and has PCIe2.0 instead of 1.x, but thats about all the difference there is.
    I had games stopping due to a driver from Creative and BSOD's, needlees to say I scrapped that card and Ill make do with my onboard 5.1 realtek, which suits me just fine 
    If it is the problem, get a normal card for a few bucks, they dont have to be that expensive, unless your a big audiofan who can separate all different frequencies and tones 
    Upping the southbridge (SB) voltage isnt a good idea either.
    This is the connection to the slower stuff in/on your system like, HD's, cd/dvd stations, keyboard and such and therefore dont need to have more voltage, at least not on any of the systems I had.
    On my current system it caused more troubles then it did good.
    Try 1 thing at a time and test/use/wait to see if it changes anything.

  • Graphic corruption ( glitch) with high setting in games

    when im playing games i have graphics corruption and glitch if i put graphic setting too high.
    i tried several games...
    for example: need for speed underground 2:
    high quality + 1024*768 = no corruption graphic
    high quality + 1280*1024= no corruption graphic in the first minute after that time the graphic become worst. a lot of corruption very strange and after some minutes it freeze.
    high quality + 1280*1024 + 4AA = corruption graphic even in game menu i only see the tires of the car lol and the menu text in corrupt a lot too. i tried to start the game and i only see 3 different color rectangle.
    same things happen in others games with fifferent graphic setting.
    this is strange because with my old 1600+ xp i didnt have any graphic corruption with my graphic card and my memory.  i played need for speed underground 2 with these high stting without any corruption graphic all my drivers are updated.

    could you share your xorg.conf? I have the same problem with the compiz fusion as my WM, however, I didn't use xorg.conf.
    Thank you!
    first generate xorg.conf (see http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg ) and modify/add:
    Section "Device"
    Identifier "Card0"
    Driver "intel"
    VendorName "All"
    BoardName "All"
    Option "DRI" "True"
    Option "RenderAccel" "True"
    Option "ExaOptimizeMigration" "off"
    EndSection
    Section "DRI"
    Mode 0666
    EndSection
    Section "Extensions"
    Option "Composite" "Enable"
    EndSection
    I don't make public all my xorg.conf because is for my particular hadware

  • No internet in Wine for WoW

    Hello everyone.  Having some trouble running World of Warcraft on my Arch system under Wine.  I run wine ./Launcher.exe, and this is what I get:
    [World of Warcraft]$ wine ./Launcher.exe
    fixme:process:GetLogicalProcessorInformation (0x33e3f8,0x33e9f8): stub
    fixme:wininet:InternetSetOptionW Option INTERNET_OPTION_CONNECT_TIMEOUT (15000): STUB

    [World of Warcraft]$
    And I get a window pop up in typical WoW fashion stating that I need to check my network and try again.
    I thought maybe this was a wine problem itself, so I tried installing Firefox for Windows under wine, and it works just fine.  I tried running Launcher as root, but I got the same result. 
    so I tried running wine ./Wow.exe and this is what happens:
    World of Warcraft]$ wine ./Wow.exe

    [World of Warcraft]$
    and it pops up with a window from wine saying "Failed to find a suitable display device. Exiting Program". Looks like my video drivers are having issues.   lspci | grep VGA gives me:
    05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G98 [GeForce 8400 GS] (rev a1)
    and lsmod | grep nv results in:
    nvidia 10025938 40
    i2c_core 18070 3 videodev,nvidia,i2c_i801
    Has anyone else had this happen to them, and if so, what can I do to fix it?  I only have Windows installed on my computer to play WoW, and I would much rather get rid of it and play WoW under wine.  Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you very much.

    With the most current launcher, it hasn't worked for me, even with the latest version of WINE.  What i would suggest, is apply the patches manually,( put them into your main WoW folder, run them from either the file manager, or from command line, and let them install.  While this is tedious, you need to apply the in sequential order, otherwise you'll run into problems.  After you have all the patches applied, just run the game from wow.exe, and skip the launcher, you can change all necessary settings either from in the game, or from the config.wtf file.

  • Graphics corrupted / garbled display on Core Duo MacBook Pro (ATI)

    My first-generation (Core Duo) MacBook Pro (with ATI chipset) is having video problems.
    When this happens, the graphics become corrupted / display becomes garbled and the computer freezes shortly afterwards making it basically unusable. You can just about follow a garbled mouse pointer around, but it is unresponsive.
    The only solution is a hard reset (power button for seven seconds).
    Has anyone encountered this problem?
    At first, I suspected that the computer was overheating as it seemed to occur only after prolonged use - but in the past two days, it could freeze immediately at login screen basically making it completely unusable.
    Apple Hardware Test (on original CD) says "No Problems Found", but I still suspect hardware trouble as this only began occuring a week or so after my computer had the left fan replaced (it stopped working after an earlier problem in January at the Apple Store in Highcross Leicester.
    I suspect something ELSE is wrong and that it requires service again, so am planning to go to the store in Birmingham on Sunday (which is closer to me -- I went to the Leicester store last time). What should I ask Apple to look at? The graphic corruption occurs even when running right off the Leopard CD, or even on the Apple Hardware Test!

    Hi - thanks for your help with the issue. Just as an update, I brought my Mac in for service on the 8th February at the Apple Store Bullring – and oddly, it worked perfectly in the Store. However, I showed them this thread and the pictures they had – and they replaced the logic board and apparently it's one of the costliest parts ever possible to place, shockingly expensive that it's like the cost of a new laptop! However as it's under AppleCare (well, higher education parts and labour warranty) it was covered. Phew!
    I got my Mac back today, and so far, it appears to be working perfectly (though as the graphic problems were intermittent, I'm making sure I do backups!), and fingers crossed, I should now have a working Mac once again!
