similar to: Steam games crash during gameplay

Hello. I recently installed Steam through Wine 1.0.0, but when I run DOD: Source, Half Life, DOD, or Deathmatch Classic, I experience the same problem. The game loads and runs fine, but the menu screen is flashing over the actual gameplay images every second. It's as if the menu screen is trying to stay on top of the game, but it's struggling to do so. I am using Ubuntu 8.04, Wine 1.0.0

I installed starcraft 2 into wine, and everything works perfectly fine. I log in, go to singleplayer, start a game with the AI, and everything works as it should.

Unreal Tournament works great in 1.1.4, but with one 'little' problem - the speed of game (not fps, just speed of gameplay) is changing chaotically during gameplay - for example it speeds up whe looking on the floor - strange, isnt it??

When I try to install a game (purchased on Windows) in Steam by selecting the title and clicking "Install", it doesn't do anything for a couple of seconds and then crashes. Here's a log from a console: http://codepad.org/n89JWRFb I'm on Kubuntu 10.04, Wine 1.2-rc1.

Hello, I've been having problems trying to run Steam games. The Steam itself takes up a lot of resources even when idle, for some reason, but the games run rather smoothly - in menu that is. Most of the games I have on steam are multiplayer games, and as the topic title suggests, I can't ever get to play them due to problems on connection. When playing Men of War, the game freezes on

I did some moderate searching and didn't see my problem, so I'll post it here, as I believe it's a Wine problem (although it's very possible it's not, Ubuntu is an interesting beast XD). About... oh, I'd say 3 weeks ago, I tried to open Garry's Mod and it said "launching", and the launching window closed as normal, but then nothing happened after that. This

I seem to be having a video update issue with Popcap games on Steam using Twinview. Has anyone else run into this problem?

What is the current status of Steam games in Wine? Some people claim same or better performance than Windows and other say its much worse. At least with TF2, the game goes from great performance with decent settings in Windows, to barely playable with all settings on low in Wine. Can Steam games run well in Wine without having a machine so powerful it can overcome any software problems? Is there a

This topic seems to pop up every now and then, and I think I've tried all the solutions that have been given for it. I'm running Linux Mint 9 (64 bit) with Wine 1.1.42.

The problem happened to me under both Ubuntu 10.04 (64 bit) and Linux Mint 9 (64 bit). I have tried
