Running EQ under LINUX

[Shadeofgray]

Hi, I'm hoping to see if anyone can help me troubleshoot this. To make a long story short, I've been able to get EQ working under Wine on Linux 16.04. It works pretty flawlessly from what I can tell. Once I figured out the resolution it ran like a charm with one exception...

On occasion (I don't know what triggers this) the game will crash completely. Because of how this server seems to work, you're unable to immediately log back in. Of course this leads to frustration once you pass level 5 and start losing exp for deaths. Going forward I'd really like to solve this problem before playing much more.

The terminal I run from doesn't give me many clues as to what causes the crash either. This is all it reads:

fixme:d3d:wined3d_swapchain_set_gamma_ramp Ignoring flags 0x1.

and those messages are long before any crash occurs.

Using Wine 1.9.18 on Linux 16.04. Nvidia 375.66 drivers. I run Full Screen with a 1280x960 virtual desktop through winecfg (psuedo windowed mode).

Disclaimer: I'm by no means a seasoned player, just a regular dude trying to get the game running [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Appreciate any and all help.
