So I upgraded my Linux from OpenSuSE 11.2 to 11.3, and after getting everything
set up i try to get into Warcraft and see that it crashes as soon as i get to
the loading screen, it crashes.

Thankfully i was able to come here and see that the problem isn't in my Wine,
but in the new Kernel that comes with 11.3. And even better that there was
already an answer for it.

The only problem is that i'm not really sure where to go from here. I've never
patched a kernel before and don't really know where to start. I tried following
the forum link above which said that there would be discussion on how to do it
and such, but there are only 5 posts all asking about what the problem is, and
not discussing the solution.

If anyone can help me to patch my kernel, step by step, I'd be most
appreciative. The current Kernel that 11.3 uses is 2.6.34-12, which i
understand is a SuSE specific deviation. Can i just patch to that version, or
do i need to download a whole new source from kernel.org and patch to that?

If anyone could provide a link with step by step instructions, or can email me
with that help, I'd be very grateful.

BTW: I tried downgrading my kernel back to 2.6.31 (vanilla) using the 11.2
repository, but that seems to cause even more issues as Compiz isn't working,
and WoW crashes as soon as the launcher comes up.
