exincoralius	Hello, I'm trying to run GW2 in Ubuntu, and I come up with this error log: http://pastebin.com/kS8b5dHP It's pretty much a whole lot of: fixme:d3d:resource_check_usage Unhandled usage flags 0x8. I looked this up already and it says it's caused by not having enough video memory. I checked the settings for GW2 on POL and it says the video memory available is 4096. I know my machine can run GW2 as I've run it in Windows in the past, and it was even working in Ubuntu until a couple days ago. The only difference is that I used the Intel Graphics Installer for Linux in the hopes of improving my performance. This is my machine: http://shop.lenovo.com/us/en/laptops/ideapad/u-series/u430-touch/#techspecs Thanks for the help!

Quote from exincoralius Well, it doesn't say it as well as `err:d3d:resource_init Out of adapter memory` do ;) In general you can disregard fixmes in first approximation, and this Unhandled usage flags 0x8 is no exception, you can find it in lots of logs, including of perfectly working programs. ^{My scripts wiki: https://github.com/petchema/playonlinux/wiki} ^{GOGmix: https://www.gog.com/en/mix/playonlinux_install_scripts}

Not sure). ^{My scripts wiki: https://github.com/petchema/playonlinux/wiki} ^{GOGmix: https://www.gog.com/en/mix/playonlinux_install_scripts}

exincoralius	What could cause it to work fine previously but stop working now? I haven't changed any of my settings...

soulhuntor	Guild Wars 2 stopped working for me as well today. It stopped working after I updated my Nvidia drivers to 334.21 ( I had other updates as well such as pulse 5.0). I have downgraded both to their most recent versions that worked previously, but Guild Wars 2 still won't run. Here is my debug after upgrading to 334.21 then downgrading back to 331.49(which was working right before I updated): http://pastebin.com/yQb2Wr1r Edit: I have an Nvidia GTX 650 Ti with 1GB of memory Here is the debug log after the update to nvidia driver 334.21 http://pastebin.com/6PRXvPbV Edited by soulhuntor

soulhuntor	exincoralius, are you able to run anything else through PlayOnLinux?
