Thanks for all your help. I will try and do some research on vertex shader problems with ATI in linux and see what I come up with.

Well I got Ryzom running and am able to login, but then Ryzom attempts to open the background downloader, which he can't and gets stuck. The program doesn't freeze, but the downloader just won't open and Ryzom won't proceed.

Any idea how to fix this?

you can disable background downloader and see if it works.

bd has no use anyway other than slowing down client startup time and disabling sound for windows users (and who says devs dont have sense of humor ;-) , so it's safe to do so.

I'll try that, might have found the reason it does not work:
Its trying to oben Z:/home/patrick/client.cfg, which of course he can't find.

By the way, I have found the script to do the patching, but How do I start it? (I'm new to linux)

make sure wine is executing client_ryzom_rd.exe in Ryzom directory
easyest is to make shell script that "cd $HOME/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Ryzom" and then launches "wine client_ryzom_rd.exe"

perl script ? you dont need it anymore. wine is able to run ryzom generated patch bat file just fine (unless you running ancient wine version)

Maybe GF uses some new M$ features that will render this How-To useless with the next update.
