Blizzards new patch that came out today seems to have changed something. At
least it's working for me now with wine 1.0.1. I've been able to play 2
battle.net games which lasted about 15 minutes each.

The bad thing is, the auto-update of the Blizzard-Patch breaks many
installations, even on windows. WC3 didn't start anymore asking for the correct
CD after updating to 1.22.

Installing MS C++ 2005 SP1 fixes this problem:

Hope that longer games work too, need to test though.....
