After hearing all the rave about Half-Life/Counter-Strike on Wine I decided to take the plunge myself... after rpm -e the default OLD wine packages from my RH7.2 install I installed wine20011004 graciously provided by http://www.linux-easy.com/daily/ ... setup my ~/.wine/config and got VERY UPSET when Half-Life install would even work... barfing the folloowing message! :( [msowka@mainframe cdrom]$ ./Setup.exe Warning: /usr/bin/wine not accessible from a configured DOS drive Warning: /usr/bin/wine not accessible from a configured DOS drive Warning: /usr/bin/wine not accessible from a configured DOS drive FIXME:pthread_rwlock_rdlock FIXME:pthread_rwlock_unlock FIXME:pthread_rwlock_rdlock FIXME:pthread_rwlock_unlock FIXME:pthread_rwlock_rdlock FIXME:pthread_rwlock_unlock FIXME:pthread_rwlock_rdlock FIXME:pthread_rwlock_unlock err:win:WIN_FindWndPtr window 1002a belongs to other process err:win:WIN_FindWndPtr window 10021 belongs to other process err:win:WIN_FindWndPtr window 10029 belongs to other process err:win:WIN_FindWndPtr window 1002a belongs to other process err:win:WIN_FindWndPtr window 10021 belongs to other process err:win:WIN_FindWndPtr window 10029 belongs to other process [msowka@mainframe cdrom]$ wine --version Wine release 20011004 Please... any suggestions will be MUCH appreciated.. :) I'm sure it's just a newbie DUMP mistake or something..

In any case, I'll help with what I can. Firstly, I suggest you go to lhl.linuxgames.com, the linux halflife site. It has a HOWTO for setting up linux in halflife, though admittedly it is quite average in detail.> [msowka@mainframe cdrom]$ ./Setup.exe > Warning: /usr/bin/wine not accessible from a configured DOS drive > Warning: /usr/bin/wine not accessible from a configured DOS drive > Warning: /usr/bin/wine not accessible from a configured DOS driveHere is probably your biggest problem. Wine wants to access /usr/bin/wine for some reason for the program. You should edit your wine config file (most likely ~/.wine/config), and add an extra drive to the end of the list. The extra drive's configuration should look like this (with of course whatever drive letter you want inserted: [Drive X] "Path" = "/usr" "Type" = "hd" "Filesystem" = "win95" This way, your /usr filesystem will appear as drive X to all windows apps, which will solve the above problem. With regards to that "window owned by other process" problem, ignore it. My version of WINE says that too when I run InstallShield, but it always works fine anyway.
Thanx everyone for your help... I managed to figure out my old problem... ( I didn't have write permission int my C:\ duhH!!!!) Plasma: yeah Drive X worked great... BUT NOW: when trying to rund Counter-Strike under regular wine... when I double click on a server it says I dont' have the cstrike custom game installed!!!! I do... ofcourse. trying winex the whole thing crashed when I try to start a game... even when I try to go into a console.. :( OH WELL... any suggestions ?
