CE Problems: Bnet / Act-Based Words

Ok, so i've been playing around with CE 768, and I've just got a few questions

throughout act 1 and 2, I've been finding these 'unique word items'. I know you need them for regular quest item combinations, BUT, for the heradric staff, I've got everything but the word "other(s)" I have "Cube" "me" "with" "the" and both the staff parts... Who/where do I get "others" ?

Another thing is I can't seem to get onto the multiplayer. I try to connect but I keep getting an error saying invalid version (same message as Bnet would show if it cant ID the version) What am I doing wrong?

do you habve any loader?
version identify mostly fails if the exe is not the original one

The word "others" drops from Kaa (the soulless?) in one of the 6 wrong tombs in act2.

I installed D2 / LoD normally, patched it via B-net . Then Installed CE and did the whole 'activate' thing. after that I unzipped 768 from the zip into the Diablo 2 directory...
No other mods installed

Do you chose the right realm (Gateway Chaos Empire) and can enter it. I can enter the serverchannel with any version of Diablo2 (even with other mods).
Do you use a router or firewall? Possibly you have to open some ports.

There's the problem then..... I dont see GateWay Chaos Empire.... I only see the standart 4 Bnet gateways....
what did I do wrong?

You can manually import those gateways into your D2 with the ceRealm.reg from the Download section.

Running linux it is a bit confusing at the moment... I use cedega, and everything seems to work fine... the ceRealm.reg is in the Diablo 2 folder, but it does not seem to want to recognize the CE gateway.

Should I 'inject' the contents of ceRealm.reg in the user.reg file in the Diablo 2 section of .cedega, or is the file meant to be in the core Diablo 2 folder (where the data and .exe are)

EDIT: N/M problem solved.... just injected the reg into wine's regedit, then copied the user.reg from wine into cedega, works now =D
