I might be in over my head a little bit here, but I've been trying to run a copy of EQ Titanium that I installed in windows and then copied into a Linux wine directory. I got it to work, but I ran into the head banging on desk no character models bug.
I've replaced the d3dx9_30.dll with the
http://funcamp.net/w/d3dx9_30.dll one. I've editied the ini file to turn off vertex shaders and what not. I'm about to try to install ATI proprietary drivers and see if that works.
This is the exact laptop that I'm trying to use, except I have 3 gb of ram and my processor is 3.4ghz.

It's running Mint 15 32bit. Ive kinda ran out of Ideas short of scratching everything and starting over again.
