           Summary: OpenGL changes break World of Warcraft in 0.9.4 and
                    above.
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.7.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-x11driver
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org
        ReportedBy: gs234-winebugzilla(a)srcf.ucam.org


Under wine 0.9.4 and newer WoW (run with the -opengl switch) crashes fairly soon
with the following error message:

X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  145 (GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  13 (X_GLXCreateGLXPixmap)
  Serial number of failed request:  407
  Current serial number in output stream:  408

This usually happens immediately or soon after the loading screen is finished
when logging in a character.

However, there is a small patch available wich paritally undoes the changes in
0.9.4: <http://kaspersandberg.com/~redeeman/wine-cvs-glx-r2.diff>.

I myself have nothing to with that patch, but I can confirm that it fixes my
problem.  I found it here:
<http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Install_and_update_World_Of_Warcraft_with_wine#X_error_of_failed_request:>.

I hope this gives you the information you need.

I am using a self-compiled wine on a up-to-date Debian unstable system. 
(However, the debian-packaged wine exhibits the same problems.)
