Hi there,

There should be several of download links / tutorials on how to connect on linux.

If you still need this, I'll make sure to find and link you one.

I apologize for my late response!

Hi [Image: 1f642.png]

I thank you for the reply and there is no need to be sorry [Image: 1f642.png]

well, my wife tried all links she could find. it does not even work with the Cata 4.3.4 or the WotLK 3.3.4 :/ i have all clients, there is no problem with them. but when she is trying to work with that in the terminal and wine, it always tells about things that are not in the client datas :/ My english is not the best ><

we tried with just copy the client into wine, doesn't work eather. it says there are missing files also :/ ((by the way I start to hate linux xD she loves it)

Best greetings [Image: 1f642.png]

Hm I see, yeah I've always been a windows user myself as well. I'll see if I can post a link and some more detailed information and help when I get home vacation, but that'll take a bit though!

For playing Cataclysm on a linux machine you could try to use "Wine", further description below

Cataclysm runs fine via wine.

Check the AppDB, you'll find solutions there. https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p...n&iId=1922

Even though, I have never tried it, it's just source from research.
