I couldn't find clear instructions how to get Warcraft 3 working on the AA1, so I figured it out myself. The game runs pretty well, 20+ fps with all the details set low. Here's the notes from my [url=http://aspireonedev.blogspot.com/2008/12/warcraft-3-on-aa1.html]AA1 blog[/url]. [quote]Alright, here's how to run Warcraft 3 on an Aspire One. First things first, you'll need to create an ISO image of a Warcraft 3 disk. It may work by merely copying the data, but I didn't try it. If you do, simply ignore all the steps involving mounting. My main machine is a Windows XP box, so I used the free program ImgBurn to create an ISO. [URL]http://www.imgburn.com[/URL] You're also going to need the latest patch from Blizzard, which just happens to include a No-CD fix. [url="http://us.blizzard.com/support/article.xml?articleId=21220"]http://us.blizzard.com/support/article. ... leId=21220[/url] Copy the ISO file and the Patch to a Memory Card or USB Key, and insert it in the AA1. Next you're going to need Wine. If you don't already have it, from a terminal execute: [b]yum install wine-devel[/b] This should get Wine version 1.1.9 or better. Now that we have Wine, lets install the game. Start by mounting the ISO image. [b]sudo mount -o loop /media/disk-1/Warcraft3.iso /mnt/mountfolder[/b] /mnt/mountfolder must exist as a folder for this to work. Tweak appropriately. If you became root by using SU, be sure to exit. Otherwise, you'll install the game in root's account, instead of your user account. Browse to the mount and run the installer. [b]cd /mnt/mountfolder[/b] [b]wine install.exe[/b] Follow the instructions. Feel free to place it anywhere on your C drive (it's a fake C drive anyways). C:\Warcraft 3, or under Program Files. Let the install finish, but DON'T START the game yet. Application installed by wine can be found in your home folder in a hidden directory ".wine/drive_c/". [b]cd[/b] (this goes back to your home folder) [b]cd .wine/drive_c cd wherever_you_installed_Warcraft3[/b] The first thing you [b]must[/b] do is [b]rename the Movies folder[/b]. This is to avoid a startup bug in Wine. [b]mv Movies/ _Movies/[/b] Next, browse to the memory card or USB stick and install the patch. [b]cd /media/disk-1/[/b] [b]wine War3ROC_122a_English.exe[/b] Wait a bit, and the patching process will begin. The patch may start the game at this point, and it may be slow and have glitchy sound. Just exit, and we'll fix this. First the sound fix. From a terminal run the Wine Configuration Tool. [b]winecfg[/b] Go to the Audio page. [b]Deselect[/b] the [b]ALSA driver[/b] and select the [b]OSS Driver[/b] instead. Click Ok. Next the performance. We need to add a registry key. From a terminal type: [b] wine regedit[/b] Browse to: [b]HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Blizzard Entertainment\Warcraft III[/b] From here, were going to add a new [b]DWORD key[/b]. Call the key "[b]Gfx OpenGL[/b]" (no quotes), and give it a value of [b]1[/b]. That's it. Browse to your Warcraft 3 folder and run it by executing: [b]wine Warcraft\ III.exe[/b] Tada, Warcraft 3. You can play with the graphics settings to improve performance. With everything turned off/low and running 800x600, for me it's a very playable looking 20fps or so.[/quote]
