After three days of fruitless trials and fixes, I finally got things working tonight, so for those still looking for a fix, here's what I've done; I installed wine-1.4-rc6 (https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-wine/+archive/ppa), downloaded the eve offline installer (http://community.eveonline.com/download/?fallback=1&), and then went on to a terminal window to do the following:
winecfg (this is just to set up the environment, so just quit) cd ~/.wine/drive_c winetricks vcrun2008 winetricks vcrun2010 wine EVE_Online_Installer_351477.exe (default settings) winetricks corefonts wine msiexec /i msxml3.msi (from http://download.cnet.com/Microsoft-XML-Parser-MSXML-3-0-Service-Pack-7-SP7/3000-7241_4-10731613.html) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 WINEDLLOVERRIDES="*msvcrt,*msvcr100,*msvcr80=b,n" wine Program\ Files/CCP/EVE/bin/ExeFile.exe
(wine was updated to 1.5 later tonight, and it still works) *NOTE* for me this dosen't work with ".../EVE/eve.exe" - the launcher starts but it can't launch the client. I guess it needs some more winetricks applied to work with the launcher.
Today the client also started to work under PlayOnLinux (http://www.playonlinux.com/en/download.html) again, wine 1.4rc6/1.4/1.5, plus loads of librarys/dlls installed - which is how I usually run it, since before Crucible 1.5. Load flags for all libraries are left at default, except *msvcrt, *msvcr100, *msvcr80, *msvcr90, which are set to "builtin then native". This installation runs the launcher and repairer as well, but might fail to update the client through the launcher (see other posts for fixes, or use the offline installer - repairing a broken update with the repairer v3.45, http://cdn1.eveonline.com/client_repair/345/repair.exe, has worked for me).
Both variants works in windowed, fixed window and full screen. Captains Quarter doesn't work, as per usual (actually, it works once in a blue moon - I had it running once tonight).
This is basically just putting all previous knowledge in this and a few other threads to good use, but it still didn't work until late yesterday. Strangley enough, the PlayOnLinux installlation is the same now as it has been for 48 hours, only difference is that it works now. It started to work just after the plain wine installation started to work - and no, they don't share any files or settings. I can selectively break each by "winetricking" them or even delete one or the other (there was one system update today - totally unrelated [*tm], but, well, I don't know, maybe it's the moon phase?). The PlayOnLinux "user.reg" has the following relevant Direct3d settings: "DirectDrawRenderer"="opengl", "Multisampling"="disabled", "OffscreenRenderingMode"="pbuffer", "PixelShaderMode"="enabled", "UseGLSL"="enabled", "VideoMemorySize"="512". The plain wine version has none.
Platform: Ubuntu 64bit 11.04 Natty 2.6.38-13-generic, no fancy desktop thingys, like Unity, Compiz - or wallpaper :). AMD 6-core Phenom II, 8GB, AMD (ATI actually) 3870 512MB with proprietary drivers (fglrx), One Desktop spread out over two screens (Xinerama), RandR 1.2.
