found on your Warcraft III install CD under Options.

Keep updating wine as dx8 support is improving in wine over time. Make sure you 
have wine compiled with --enable-opengl if required, and ensure your display is 
not in a 24 bit display mode (There's an issue there as Warcraft doesnt like 24 
bit displays - it must be 16 or 32 bit). If you still get the message, send me 
a --debugmsg +d3d trace zipped up and I'll take a look. 

(Note: I dont get _that_ error, it just doesnt work...)
