The issue seems to be related to camera angle, as I am able to click on items/people when I have my camera positioned just right.  It's basically unplayable at the moment though.

For me the bug has disappeared after upgrading to Ubuntu Breezy with a 
2.6.12 kernel and the lastest release of WINE.

I stumbled upon a post on a Gentoo forum where a few people said that 
they didn't need the ugly cadega workaround to play WoW after using 
kernel 2.6.12.

So after I got Ubuntu upgraded from Hoary to Breezy (which uses a 2.6.12 
kernel instead of a 2.6.10) I tested WoW with a clean WINE 20050725 
(Debian packages from wine.df.net/apt).

The bug hasn't shown itself since. I belive it is the kernel upgrade.
I dunno, I might have just been lucky.


Just wanted to let you know, dunno if I have just been lucky.
