I applied the two patches from bugzilla (http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2814#c8) which includes Raphael's opengl32 fbconf patch and another one from Tim Savannah  which looks like this:

--- wine2/dlls/x11drv/opengl.c	2005-03-24 20:51:16.000000000 -0500
+++ wine/dlls/x11drv/opengl.c	2005-03-24 20:50:14.000000000 -0500

+   iPixelFormat = physDev->used_visuals + 1;
   }
 
   if (iPixelFormat == physDev->used_visuals + 1) {


I note two things when using these patches:
1) WoW works.  Game loads and runs again.
2) The login/character select screen will occasionally be extremely choppy/slow.  Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't, and there seems to be no direct cause from what I can tell since the traces are identical.  Once in the game it performs nicely from what I've seen, so it's really just a minor irritation.


Some, however, have reported that these two patches don't solve the problem.  As I am not one of those, I am unable to provide traces/details on this.  If I find any issues occurring regularly on my end, I'll send in the appropriate info so that you guys can take a look at it.

Thanks for the swift fixes!
