Hello, Ubuntu newb here. I loaded some games onto my laptop that has a fresh copy of Ubuntu 11.04 and they worked flawlessly with wine. I am now trying to get steam to work. I downloaded it through their website and opened the file through wine/winetricks and it will update and log in to my account, but once it logs in it just closes. No ghost window, update tab or anything. I've

Hello all, I'm trying to get Team Fortress 2 going and so far it's working good minus the fact the fonts for the server list are just about unreadable. I'm running on a clean ~/.wine directory and I had winetricks install: adobeair, d3dx9, corefonts, unifont, vcrun2005, allfonts, flash, amd gecko.

I am trying to track down a crash in Steam (Steam itself, not a game through it). In following appdb instructions for Steam I realized that it was installed in /home/tparker/.local/share/wineprefixes/steam/drive_c/Program Files/Steam/steam.exe and not in :~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files> where I had expected it, although that second directory does have a SteamInstall.msi sitting in it but

I'm about to try out Team Fortress 2 because my friends wanted me to join in with them, and I'm using Wine to run Steam. However, because I'm new to this Steam business and everything, I'm just curious -- how do I install a game using Steam as the AppDB says? Or, how do I move TF2 files to this "steamapps" folder, and if that is the preferred method, how can I get the

Hey guys, Can anyone help me close the gap between my POL and Wine setups? I currently have a laptop running PlayOnLinux 3.8.8 and a desktop running only Wine 1.3.9 (Fedora 14). As the subject read, the laptop with POL is running fine, but a generic install with the latest .msi file from the Steam website is not. Steam on Wine, was able to run it's own autoupdate, but after that refuses

I am running wine1.3, installed from the winehq repo on ubuntu 10.10. I installed steam through winetricks, nothing else. After this i told steam to start installing civ V. And for some time it just downloader with 1.4mb/sec. then suddenly everything stopped... and all i could squeeze out of my connection was 150kb/sek. Is there anything in wine1.3, or perhaps steam running under wine1.3 that

I am running wine 1.1.43 in Debian Squeeze (32 bit) and still receive this error. My console gets flooded with the message "fixme:threadpool:RtlQueueWorkItem Flags 0x4 not supported" after I login to steam and as soon as the main steam menu appears, it crashes. Has anyone else still received problems with the new steam GUI?

So, steam doesn't seem to be working very well, (at least on my computer) with about the 10 latest wine versions. I'm running: Kubuntu 7.10 on an old, nvidia nforce2 amd athlon 2400+ nvidia fx5900xt with proper working drivers (glxgears gives me +5000fps) 512mb ram. Here's console output: alex at Burken:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Steam$ wine steam fixme:mixer:ALSA_MixerInit No

I bought a new computer for myself, and installed Kubuntu on it. I installed Steam on it, bought the orange box, tried to run TF2, and it didn't work. When I started it up, t showed the VALVE logo and played their little jingle, showed the Source logo, then the screen went blank and nothing happened :x . It opened it in the Konsole (Terminal) and it gave me this when the screen (on the desktop

Yesterday my computers hard drive was supposedly destroyed because of windows as dell tech help told me over the phone. My friend came over today and introduced me to ubuntu and wine. My computer is working wonderfully on this os but I have a problem. I bought elder scrolls III on steam yesterday 20 minutes before my computer crashed. I don't really know the first thing about computers. I have

I just installed steam+TMN and it seems to run quite well apart from sound. I tried switching to OSS and got not sound while on ALSA I get the occasional "click" and thats about it. Other software I have run through wine is WAR beta and WoW both of which play sound fine, so I suspect maybe Steam is holding up the sound device or something? I am on Ubuntu Hardy. I also used winetricks

Hey guys, I'm sure that this question has already been answered. If so, could someone direct me to the answer. The problem is that, steam.exe cannot access the Internet. My Internet service is fine, and I have not had any problems with steam accessing the Internet in the past. The problem only started a few days ago, and I am not sure what the cause is. I have tried basically everything. I

Ok I got IE7 working, mainly because of Steam, but I wanted to see if I could get flash working, aparently activex controls won't install correctly. Is there a way to fix this? (i've tried Winetricks for flash but it tells me the .exe hash doesn't match or something). Anyways, just curious, not to use ie in linux but mainly to get flash working since steam seems to use IE for

This is very possibly an easy fix, as I've had steam running on this particular box before through wine. However, I've been googling my ass off and looking through the suggested fixes on the appdb to no avail. Let's start with my setup: OS: Slackware 13.37 (64 bit with working multilib) completely up to date Video: NVIDIA GeForce 9500 GT running the most recent linux 64 bit

So after years of running a 'pure' Linux machine, I finally decided to install Wine so I could play some of my old games - and it's been a disaster. Using either Wine 1.5.3 or 1.3.3 trying to launch Half-Life Source results in nothing happening, trying to launch from the commandline gives this stack trace: Code: wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x00000000 at address

I'm encountering this as well. I'm running openSUSE 12.1/GNOME 3 with Wine 1.3.35 and Steam closes after spending a while on the "Connecting Steam account '<>'..." box. Wine outputs this: Code: fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00000100 fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00004100 fixme:process:SetProcessShutdownParameters (00000100, 00000000):

[1.6-rc4] - Still No Text In Windows Valve Steam Client ? Hi, I am running Kubuntu 13.04 64Bit fully updated. I am running WINE 1.6-rc4. When I installed Valve's Steam client for Windows it installed with no problems but when Steam client launches is has no text. I know the current work-around: "wine Steam.exe -no-dwrite". When will this issue be fixed? Thanks! PS - Yes I know

My Steam install under wine seems to be in a rather strange state. I was only playing a couple of Valve games (TF2, CS:S), and I decided to add Left 4 Dead 2 to the mix, which worked fine. However, every other Steam game I had then stopped working. For example, I start CS:S and I get the "preparing to start game...." box, and nothing happens; same sequence with my other steam games.

Hello, I installed Steam with winetricks (i installed vcrun2005 and corefonts before). The update succeeded and when i launch the game, after to log in (user and password) Steam stop alone.
