-Sound only works when Hardware Acceleration is set to Emulated and Driver Emulation is turned on in winecfg. I have nforce2 sound, but I think this is true for everyone judging by the gentoo forums.
-Sound doesn't work very well it cuts out periodically and there are constant buffer underrun errors unless you manually hack WoW's config files to specify SoundBufferSize to be 150 or lower.
-With the DirectX renderer, WoW doesn't get past the login screen (after login screen goes black). This is an improvement for me over previous versions though, which would simply lock up my entire machine on launch. (output from Wine below)
-With the OpenGL render, WoW doesn't get past the login screen either. But instead of going to black, the graphics just freeze in place. (output from Wine below) This maybe a regression -- in 20050725 I could get in game and walk around, but that was also before the 1.8.1 WoW patch, although the 1.8.1 patch contains only minor fixes.
-When exiting the game, your previous resolution isn't restored. I don't think this is specific to WoW. Wine should store the current resolution and restore it on exit.
Also, interestingly, the DirectX renderer in full screen is much faster for me than the OpenGL one. I know the game's OpenGL renderer is less developed, but on Windows the difference isn't as drastic, and seeing as that DirectX support is younger I expected it to be slower.
Nvidia users might have better luck with DirectX/OpenGL than me. I know there are other players that can get in game, I'm guessing they're nvidia users. I'm running the fglrx 8.16.20 drivers on a Radeon 9700 Pro. I'll try with the new 8.18 drivers later and post if there's any difference.
Output from running with OpenGL render below. Once it gets stuck I press Ctrl+C to quit wine, and that's when it prints out everything after the line break:
