Hi, I'm using Gentoo Linux and Wine 0.9.1. I had no problem to install Steam, but Halflife and it's Mods like CS doesn't work. After starting the game through Steam, the background image appears, but there are no menu entrys and the App didn't reponse anymore. If I minimize CS and maximize it again, the background didn't get repainted. When having virtual desktop disabled

Hi all First : sorry for my english, i'm french [Embarassed] I have a problem with counter strike source.

so heres the delima (mainly centered around starcraft but also other games) Ideally I'd like to be able to manually set the running resolution of a game, im not sure if this is still doable without the config file but im hoping. newer games that allow setting the running resolution in there settings are no problem since they all stick to what I tell them to do however older games like

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 64bit on a Thinkpad T500, I believe I'm using the integrated Intel GMA 4500MHD graphics that come with it. I'm using the default WINE install, I think version 1.1.42. I'm trying to run Monkey Island 2: Special Edition downloaded from Steam. It actually sort of works. It installed just fine. When I first ran it gave me a blank screen and that was it.

Listmates: For the past 1 or 2 compiz releases, for some reason it opens Yast software management full-screen with no window decorations in kde. kwin gives the normal windowed yast s/w management. Compiz also ignores the special windows settings in kde for this package. Is there anything I can check or tweak to correct this? Thanks. -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E. Rankin Law Firm, PLLC 510

Hi, I've noticed, now that I'm using twinview, that when I click any other window outside of the Wine desktop (Civ4 or WCIII normally), I can click back to the Wine desktop but can no longer use any of the keyboard shortcuts. Things work fine before actually clicking outside the wine window (for example, on my Pidgin chat window). This happens whether the app is run in windowed mode or

Hi Folks, I have been using Wine for some time now to run Team Fortress 2 (and other HL2 based games) on my Ubuntu system. I was previously running Ubuntu 7.10 with an Athlon64 3800+, a 7600GT (256MB of RAM), and 2GB of DDR2 333MHz. Recently I upgraded to Ubuntu 8.10 (i386) with an AthlonX2 64 6000+, an 8800GT (1GB of RAM) and 4GB of DDR 800MHz. I was really hoping for a nice performance bump

I'm running the game with the following options: > -novid -dxlevel 90 -width 1024 -height 768 I've got sound working using the ALSA driver. I can play other games just fine. I have an ATI Radeon X2300 which never game me any problems, I even used glxgears and got these results, which I think are ok: > 7851 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1570.134 FPS > 11556 frames in 5.0 seconds =

In early June, there was an update from freenx 0.4.x to 0.5.x in centosplus. It broke full screen mode for Linux clients. I am aware of the ctrl-alt-f workaround. But I have quite a few users at branch offices who depend on NX and with employee turnover and all, it has been a source of confusion for us. Has anyone come up with a fix so that fullscreen works without crtl-alt-f? I've

Ubuntu 10.4 32bit I've tried Ubuntu proprietary drivers, and latest Nvidia drivers 256.53 or something. (gpu = evga 8600 gts 256mb) Wine versions 1.2 and up all have my issue When I run Steam games windowed or fullscreened, they run amazing. Until I get a skype/pidgin/rythmbox/email notification popup, at which point the steam app drops dramatically in performance. (1 different frame every 10

Nvidia video When I start fallout 2 I see start picture and game hangs. Same problems with warcraft3. there are some strange sound artifacts (like pulsing) in both games. The problem exists both in windowed and fullscreen mode

Hi ! VIRTUA TENNIS works fine (very fine and better than Cedega) , except sound (problem with initialising DirectXAudio. Error code : 0x88780078) and the game screen don't fit the desktop or fullscreen resolution: his parent window seems not be able to re-size itself.

Hi, This is some short of technical question or might be my stupidity, please tell me so ;o) Ok, let's say I have an application which I would like to run in 640x480x32/fullscreen. I have my basic X desktop settings at 1024x768 and I would no like to change the resolution. Is there any way to let wine start an X server on another shell with a different resolution, automatically switch

List, For any of you using openSuSE and frustrated by Yast -> Software Management being forced to full-screen without any window decorations, an unlikely work-around has been discovered. Dev's, I don't know if this is compiz or KDE, but something is wrong. The work-around was discovered by accident while attempting to correct a sudo problem where sudo would prompt for the root

Need to test a monitor attached to a running server, so I'm looking for an application/utility to display a large color graphic. This must be possible to do without X because a splash screen comes up when this system boots. The best graphic to display obviously would be some kind of fullscreen test pattern. Anyone know where to get that? tia, ken

I recently updated to the newest stable wine through the ppa for Ubuntu. I didn't have problems running Half Life 2 E1 before upgrading but now I have a few issues. When launching the game it's in a sort of a windowed mode and then when it goes to load the main menu it tries to go fullscreen but I can still see my dock and my top panel. If I adjust the screen resolution and set it back I

[1.3.13]-Valve's STEAM Games Do Not Work... Hi, I've mentioned this several times already and did not receive a response. (either it will be fixed or some work-around) I can't play many games when using Valve's STEAM client under current Wine 1.3.13 32bit using Ubuntu 10.10 64bit. If I run Wine full screen and run a game from STEAM I can't get the keyboard working (have to

I'm having an issue with WINE and HL2 and games on steam. I am a new Linux user (sorry). I can't get HL2 or any games to go true fullscreen to cover my panels on the top and bottom and also in Audiosurf and HL2 and whatnot I can't get the cursor to register properly. It's always above where the actual cursor is on the screen. Is there a way to fix these 2 issues?
