From the dvd : copy the files on the dvd in a folder on your hard drive, then, run the installer. Otherwize, run directly the installer. It work with wine 1.2 . It is incompatible with 2.6.34 kernels, so if you have one of that one, upgrade to 2.6.35-rc5 if you want to play sc2, or downgarde to an older one (I'm using 2.6.32 ATM). Surprisingly, it work beter than the beta on wine, and I suspect blizzard to have made it intentionnaly. | ||

I don't know how to run it with opengl renderer (but as theyre is a mac version, it have to exists somewhere). Using it could improve the performance to make them comparable to windows. PS: I'm playing SC2 on linux since the begining of the beta. | ||

Also, it looks as though, from the winehq page, you might be able to mount the DVD using the unhide option instead of copying over the files. | ||

More probably because you didn't compile wine by yourself with the correct patch. But this isn't needed anymore for SC2 (non beta). | ||

I assume you aldready have PlayOnLinux installed on your computer. 1/ Compile wine for PlayOnLinux : wget http://deadal.nix.free.fr/sc2/wineInstaller chmod +x wineInstaller ./wineInstaller This is a script to compile the correct version of wine and put it into playOnLinux. This is a quite long operation ! So be patient and continue the steps letting this tun in background. Note for ubuntu user in 64bit, you'll have to run sudo apt-get build-dep wine before launching the script. 2/ Copy the file from DVD somewhere on your hard drive (or get the downloadable installer). You may have some issue to read the DVD. Read here to know how to make it readable : http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6168400&postcount=40 You needn't to go to the end, just make the files readable, then copy all files on the DVD to the folder you want. 3/ Run the PlayOnLinux script Get the script : http://deadal.nix.free.fr/sc2/sc2betaPol (I have to rename it, but I updated it to not be a beta launcher anymore). Launch PlayOnLinux and go to tools -> run local script then choose the script you just download. Go throw the step of the script (It will ask how many memory your wideo card has and where is the installer, then, install the game). | ||

I'm ruuning ubuntu 64bit, but other person make it run on OpenSuze, and I'm pretty sure it will run on any distribution which don't have a 2.6.34 kernel. | ||

This is awesome. I don't like to upgrade kernel though as doing so always screwed up my package manager :/ What distro? | ||

Please include Kernel and distro, and if you dual boot include your other OS as well ^^ I'm trying to get this thing rolling, but so far nobody has responded  | ||

This is a very recent kernel, so you probably don't have it in your distro yet. To know which version you have, type uname -r in a terminal. | ||
