[Note: I titled this thread without any further specification so there is a chance for this thread becoming a general bucket for World Editor-related issues under Linux]

And before you zap away thinking this is just some discussion-thread, I am having issues with the World Editor under wine, so please read on.

Introduction:
The World Editor is a tool to edit terrain, scripts, setup and objects in a Warcraft 3 map. Thus it relies on all the technology the game itself is relying on, like 3D and sound-systems. It consists of several parts which usually all have their own window, the main-window including the terraining-element, which consists of normal interface-parts (like you know it, menus, buttons to click and so on) and a 3D-element where you can edit the terrain, place units and so on.

My System & Setup:
Hardware: GeForce4 Ti 4600 -> driver-version: 8.19.10, AMD Athlon Palomino; Kernel: vanilla 2.6.13.4; System: Debian Sarge; Used wine-versions: 0.9 (from a tar-file downloadable from an official download-website for wine), 0.9.8 (from CVS).
Note: I am using 0.9 for Warcraft 3 itself, which works close to perfect with it but tends to crash randomly with a newer version.

My Issue:
With wine 0.9:
World Editor starts up the way expected, but once running it seems to have a poor framerate. Looking at the error-log, 3D-acceleration obviously is not working with it for some reason. But that's not the worst - the interface-parts in the terraining-element (which also is the main-window) show up and hide randomly, sometimes depending on where the mouse is, or for other reasons - however, they don't show up completely. It is like the interface-elements and the 3D-element wouldn't go along very good with each other for some reason, like the painting (the interface) would disintegrate from the wall (the 3D-element) because the painter forgot to apply the prime coat to the wall first (that's how it looks, kinda). However, the interface-elements are still clickable and work, like if I click where a menu-point is supposed to be the menu will show up - and be persistent, it won't vanish as long as it is active.
As well in other elements of the editor-suite the interface doesn't look very well and even sometimes is incomplete like in the terrain-editor (for instance if I swapped windows and go back to an element there is a probability this will occur).

The issues described above have priority for me at least. There are more issues I've noticed (and that have been stated in the application-database as well):
-World Editor crashes when trying to open the World Editor-settings or the player-settings window.

Logs:
There are 2 logs, one from wine 0.9 and one from my tries to run it in wine 0.9.8

Last Notes:
Someone on appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?appId=1760 (de-URLed for commonly known reasons I think) says, that his World Editor is working almost completely. Unfortunately, this person doesn't seem to be around anymore. As well, no one else seems to be around there. I hope that someone here maybe has a few ideas, or that someone which is working with a similar tool could help me about that issue, maybe even with describing his setup. Or that someone interprets something in the log and can show me what is wrong with my setup or my configuration. I have to add that I tried some combinations with virtual desktop and double buffering, disabling shaders and so on.
