    Default We need a Linux client!

    Please, pretty please, can we get a Linux client for DDO? It is a much more stable OS than Windoze is and I know that there would be tons of gamers that would love you all for allowing them to be one step closer to removing the need for running a dual boot set up on their systems, including me. Pretty please, Linux FTW, Linux Client for DDO Even more FTW!

    The game runs fine on my Fedora with the latest nVidia driver. I had to disable DX11 though; but I can use the AH, mail, shop etc. There are various guides out there on how to get it to work; but I like the one on the Ubuntu forums the most.

    Check of Crossover Games by Codeweavers:

    ..and the pyLotro launcher:

    It is a gaming implementation of Wine, and works very well (provided you can live with DX9). My only problems come from voice chat and pulseaudio under Ubuntu Lucid..

    I got it to work with RedHat Enterprise Linux. If it can do that, I'm sure any of the more user-oriented linuxes such as Ubuntu would have no problems.

    Google for DDO, Wine and Linux and you should find a reasonable guide.
