Ubuntu 24 Installation

Graphic Drivers

First we need to install the graphic drivers, according to this info of Lutris (works for almost any other tool) you could install

For NVIDIA

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 && sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y nvidia-driver-535 libvulkan1 libvulkan1:i386

For AMD/INTEL

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 && sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && sudo apt install libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 mesa-vulkan-drivers mesa-vulkan-drivers:i386

Faugus Launcher

Now install the tool that will help to do all the job Faugus

Note

I experimented with Lutris and didn’t work for me

run:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:faugus/faugus-launcher
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y faugus-launcher

Install Battlenet From Faugus-Launcher

Open Faugus launcher, click on + located at bottom

Now on the new window click on the drop list with default option Windows Game

Select Battle.net

Then ok

Warning

DO NOT modify nothing

That will setup wine prefix of battlenet, download battlenet installer, then will install, follow the steps until you see the Battlenet Login

Warning

If the installation steps don’t open or crash maybe you have the brwrap issue

Warning

If you never see the login window on installation process or when you try to open the battlenet from Faugus may you don’t have the [expected Graphic Drivers](#1–graphic-drivers) based on your video hardware

brwrap issue

If you got something like pressure-vessel-wrap[11882]: E: Child process exited with code 1: bwrap: setting up uid map: Permission denied. (Only visible over terminal if you opened Faugus launcher via terminal), follow the steps bellow of brwrap issue

here someone else had the issue and discussed about it and here is the solution, in simple words do this:

Create text file named bwrap at /etc/apparmor.d/

sudo nano /etc/apparmor.d/bwrap

Then add this

abi <abi/4.0>,
include <tunables/global>

profile bwrap /usr/bin/bwrap flags=(unconfined) {
userns,

# Site-specific additions and overrides. See local/README for details.
include if exists <local/bwrap>
}

Save and reload apparmor process

systemctl reload apparmor

Now, Repeat the steps Install Battlenet From Faugus-Launcher

Could happens every time that you open the wow the resolution changes, but only that
