--- Comment #18 from Alan Delaney black.rebel@virgin.net 2007-10-15 12:15:13 --- This has been happening to me a lot too since I started playing the game a few months ago which was annoying, since I usually had to get a GM to move the characters in order to play them again, but not fatal. However since the new WoW patch last week, 2.2.3, the game has been completely broken for me and this hanging has become a regular feature. In trying to fix it I wiped all my addons, reinstalled WoW and upgraded Wine to version 9.46. The end result was that NONE of my characters worked at all anymore, not even new ones on new realms. However, after reading this thread here I tried running WoW with the -opengl option and things seem to working now, though I still have more testing to do and I haven't reinstalled the addons yet. It looks like either the new WoW patch or the latest Wine patch has broken D3D functionality for me.
