gadfly, is a IT Consultant that is willing to offer his time to make World of Warcraft run on Linux Wine. Once the Linux version is stable and World of Warcraft Retail is shipped, gadfly will offer Free tech support to the Linux community users that plays World of Warcraft on Linux Wine. Blizzard will not offer Tech support as Linux is unsupported. gadfly's documentation, software settings, and tech support will be offered for free to the Linux users under the GPL(General Public License) and GNU/Linux. So far, he has managed to make WoW running on Linux! (fedora core 1, core 2 test 1, SuSe Linux 9, and RedHat 9), The Loader, client, graphics (Nvidia OpenGL), and network all working fully in both full screen, and windowed mode. gadfly has managed to make Opengl, sound, comms, and proper launching of the client in a stable fashion. And he is able to query the Realm list. Still, he needs a volunteer SoundDirect Guru to offer advice to make this playable. If you are a professional SoundDirect Guru contact us.
