I followed you process step by step, THANK YOU. very easy! But i have encountered an issue. When i launch the game, the League of Legends logo apears. but just freezes, do you know the issue?

I've found that the shop only works for some updates, and tends to be broken more than it works, but you are still able to purchase skins and champions from the 'Champions' category of your profile.

Hi booman,
I find your guide very helpful, but I got common dbghelp/wininet error, which I cannot take care of...
I've installed LoL on wine 1.7-LoL instead of 1.6.4rc, everythings working fine until login. Game crashes when it wants to authenticate my account. If I turn off dbghelp library game doesn't crash but it cannot connect to server.
Any ideas? (installing wininet from 'configure--->install components' doesn't change a thing)

Unfortunately P2P solution doesn't work for me (Mint 15 32-bit).

If you find a way how to bypass dbghelp bug, please let me know.

Okay so I finally got to a computer that will be able to run league. I got everything installed and working and league allowed me to update, but then while trying to log in, it just crashes. Boop. Nothin. No warning messages. No ideas as to why, either. And the P2P uncheck fix did nothing as well. *sigh*

OKAY SO I WAS ABLE TO LAUNCH THE GAME AND HAD NO PROBLEMS OPENING THE SHOP @-@

Bodhi Linux 32-bit
3GB DDR1 Ram
128 MB AMD ATI Radeon 9800 series graphics card

I used /THIS/ guide to install. Then it would crash while trying to login.

I found this
https://bitbucket.org/Xargoth/tuxlol/wiki/Home

tuxlol patched some files, and I was finally able to login.

Then I had the issue of a black loading screen in which case it proceeded to crashed Enlightenment E17 in Bodhi Linux.

Now, in order to fix the black screen,, I found this:
http://forums.na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=3834522

So open up yer command prompt of choice, and run these in turn:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install libtxc-dxtn0

Now, it DID take me a while to start loading, but after it started it loaded up to 100% rather quickly. It took like 3 minutes for my old machine to allow me to enter the game, however as soon as I turned the graphics settings down(netting me a whole <5 FPS), I was able to hit 'P' to open the shop and was able to purchase Berserker's Greaves and a doran's blade for sivir no problem.

I was able to lock the camera to her by hitting 'Y', and then ran out to my lane.

Now, given the fact that I had like 3 FPS, I couldnt do much, but I figure that somebody here would appreciate the fact that I got it working i will most likely just have to install my windows xp disc on a second partition if I wish to play on this computer, but I feel accomplished that I was able to get it to work.

No problem I posted here, not sure if it is the correct place though. They have a weird hierarchy for their forum.

I'm unsure if I should start a new thread or just post my status/problem here.

Hi, i tried replace the wininet.dll with this one http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?wininet. Now it doesn't crash but i still can't connect.

I'm in the installation process right now, and after I click on the launcher and go through the installshieldwizard, I'm just ending up with a black screen. It won't actually take me to the client to update. Thats through the manual installation because the other way was just crashing
