Hm. Ok pardon my complete nubness, first time linux user. I've been running EQ on a mac via wineskin but seems slightly more complicated with linux as I'm not at all familiar with command prompts, amazing I got gallium up and running.

So I've managed to get a virtual drive using playonlinux which seems to just be GUI for wine. Now I've copied over my entire Sony/Everquest folder from my mac install into the program files on the virtual drive so the path is

/home/chrx/PlayOnLinuxs_virtual_drives/EQ/drive_c_Program Files/sony/EverQuest

(forgot change the user from chrx)

I'm now trying to run it, and not exactly sure what to do. Run Gedit is an unknown command but it looks like that bit of code you pasted is creating a script to launch to launch the game?

Instead I've used the creat shortcut with PlayOnLinux it points to the exe. though it's trying to run the patcher when I launch...

Mostly used this thread for reference getting this far

Any ideas?

** edit I tried this
"The way I do the "patchme" for the shortcut is I go to PlayOnLinux Config, select the shortcut I made under the Wine instance, and just put "patchme" without quotes in the Arguments field."

But no luck, still trying to patch
