ooh another error i found in my OP nice, its just gedit dont need the run.

Opening gedit

gedit incorporates a graphical user interface (GUI) and is opened by going to Applications → Accessories → Text Editor or by pressing Alt+F2 and typing gedit

Gedit just a text editor so trying this with the stock Mousepad text editor on Gallium. so moving to this step

- Load terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and type sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends gnome-panel
- Then type gnome-desktop-item-edit --create-new ~/Desktop
- Point/browse to the above created script file and name accordingly.

_________
Done, creates shortcut on the desktop but I get a launch error:

Failed to run "eqp99.desktop"
Failed to execute child process "home/chrx/Playonlinuxs_virtual_drives/EQ/launchscript" (Permission denied)

Started from the top with your instructions and I'm getting the same error as listed above.

You need to make the script executable.

chmod +x /home/chrx/Playonlinuxs_virtual_drives/EQ/launchscript

bingo! Thank you.

Except, now I log in and at server select it's empty ? =X

Also really need to change the resolution

Didn't have the energy to keep at it last night, seems the empty server list is a known issue. After logging out then in a number of times the serve list appeared and was able to get in game, then I went to sleep.

Success!
I logged into a toon in an empty zone and the performance was meh, then logged in a toon in EC and performance was pretty bad. Not expecting anything amazing but frames were pretty awful, need to work on optimizing for this machine I suppose. Multi core issues maybe? I'll start there tonight and tinker a bit.
