Forgot to save what I did before unless I save it under the learning WOW blog.
I did not; however, with a lot of searching I finally found the magic google search string " wow ubuntu gusty wine" that leads me to this wonderful link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft
It seems that I need direct rendering to get WOW to work and I don't have direct rendering with my ATI graphics card. I will definitely look to get a graphic card other than ATI next time I buy a portable PC.
It seems that there is a way around my graphics problem, but it may give me some poor frame rates.
WOW does support OpenGL and I can use an XServer for this.
It looks like I will need to reinstall Wine by rebuilding the most recent code.
This could be some work.
