        It does do DirectX. by Tars_Tarkas 2006-11-19 12:55:59
From the wine feature list: "DirectX support for games (limited Direct3D support)".

Of course, I doubt that limited Direct3D support will be enough for WoW. However, you can make WoW start in OpenGL mode and that will work with a patched version of wine.

See here for a howto on ubuntu. From what I could tell, it should work on other distros just the same.
