Hello, running Mint 17.3 Rebecca here and I got the RC a few days back. Can we expect dx11 to work soon-ish?

We'll have to see - DX11 support is far from done at this point. That is something the wine devs have to fix, and I can't imagine CCP having many resources to spend for wine development. I may be mistaken, though. Snorlax would probably know how much CCP devs contribute to wine.

I am not asking them to do that, just if in their opinion it is usable for us. I'm excited because after that update my old pc had a performance increase of approximately 120%.

I haven't checked and I don't get paid to check it out. I can however try out later and let you know.

Edit:

So I turned dx9 in the launcher off but it still show dx9 rendering in client.

I have the same picture here, but this may be a "feature" of the Snorlauncher. I'll try to get it running the old way using just wine and the Windows launcher later. I don't think it will work yet, though. DX11 support really doesn't work yet, I think.

Nope, same thing with the Windows launcher. It's still running on DX9.

It's not super important and at some point in the future I will get newer hardware. I am just happy about the performance increase.

Login screen works on Wine 2.0-rc3 (Ubuntu 16.10 on GTX 970)
But if i start the session with correct ssotoken and try to login, it stays all black.

if anybody went further let us know

My recommendation is to stay on the LTS like Ubuntu 16.4 LTS. You will get the new kernel and packages anyways, it might just take a few weeks longer to backport them.

I did install the wineHQ apt packages and it works just fine on my 14.4 LTS.
