I get those graphical glitches when running WoW 4.2.0 with wine (Ubuntu 11.10 AMD64), in a Dell XPS 15(L501X), even with ironhide.

Anyone can help me?

CPU: Intel Core i5-460M
4gb RAM
because it's a Dell XPS 15(Optimus Technology), i have 2 graphic cards:
- An Intel HD 460M integrated graphics card, which driver is i915
- A nVidia GeForce GT 420M, ALREADY with propietary drivers
Running Ubuntu 11.10 AMD64 with custom XFCE Desktop
Wine 1.4 rc6(Emulating winxp)
corefonts and vc2005 installed on Wine
