Installed wow but i have very bad lag.


I have installed world of warcraft but for some reason i have extreme lag when i run it, it wont even let me play it :S or get to the account log in :S.

I have installed my ATI driver and all but when i start the game it is also very laggy and it freezes :S.

I went to check my direct rendering and is off :S (it was enable before i installed the ati driver)

Can anyone help me with this? please? XD (o btw i'm using linux mint)

(I've found out that my Rendering direct is off :S and When I typed fglrxinfo it came up with Mesa 3d information. Instead of ATI.)


So if anyone could help me with this it would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

There's a troubleshooting section on the AMD/ATI site for linux drivers. Have you looked through it?

Do you have dual monitors attached to your computer? If not, just make sure there's no Xinerama option in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file or it says "off".
