similar to: Issue with Steam after Steam update

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

Hi everyone, I recently switched to Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake) GNU/Linux. I installed wine 0.9.9 using Synaptic package manager, and then downloaded steamInstall.exe from http://www.steampowered.com. The installation worked more or less (at first, it occupied progressively (according to the system monitor widgets on the panel) all the free space in my /home/~ (1,2 Gb), all the swap space (1Gb)

I have a hard time trying to run any game through Steam on Wine 1.0-rc2 and PulseAudio. I already configured it according to this sites: http://blog.paulbetts.org/index.php/2007/05/27/make-wine-and-pulseaudio-get-along/ and http://skoruppa.jogger.pl/2008/05/18/pulseaudio-my-ultimate-config/ (in Polish, but similar to this one http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578).

Hi ! I've done several things, I've was blocked on several things, but this time it's serious ! It's just after : "Connecing to steam account Steam : xxx@xxx.xxx...", I got a window displaying "steam.exe (main exception): Win32 Structuredexception at xxxxxx : attempt to read from virtual adress 0 without appropriate...etc..." In console I got :

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

The only way I know to install steam is via winetricks, the steaminstall.msi doesn't seem to work, at least not out of the box. I'm trying to install steam, and succeeded, but it installed it to ~/.local/share/wineprefixes/steam, whereas I normally install stuff to ~/.wine. How do I make winetricks install to there? I tried "winetricks steam prefix=/Users/Cole/.wine" but that

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

Another week, another winetricks. (A bit early because of the macosx fix.) Highlights: Fixes install check on macosx; many other small bugfixes and updates, too. For vineyard compatibility, don't explode if a wineprefix has spaces in the subdir name. New option --force for when you want to override the dependency check Experimental support for Steam games, see new verbs alienswarm_steam,

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):

I'm using WINE on Ubuntu (intrepid) and I was able to install Steam and it works just fine. I installed Half Life 2 but I c sseem to get it to run. When I open it from steam, steam crashes. When I open it with WINE (without steam open) steam crashes as soon as it gets me logged in. anyone have a similar problem?

Hi, I have preordered natural selection quite a while ago and it seems like it is getting to a playable state, so I wanted to know if anyone could help me (and many others :)), to get natural selection 2 to work with wine. I would gladly give you a console log, but i don't even know how i start steam-games from console :/. (when i try "wine Natural\ Selection\ 2.exe", it says that i

I have tried multiple times to connect to steam without success after updating to 1.1.8. Internet connection works, as I can access pages in firefox, and steam is not down, as I can log in through a vm with no problems. Currently running Ubuntu 8.10 with Wine 1.1.8 Any suggestions?

I am using Mint. Everytime I try to login to steam it will login and it will bring up which of my friends are online and then crashes. Is there any help?

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

All of a sudden steam and all of its games crash right after connecting to the server. It used to work fine but i'm new to Ubuntu and can't figure out how to fix it. I have tied re-installing all of my opengl files. Someone please help, here is my terminal text: ME at CPU:~/.local/share/wineprefixes/steam/drive_c/Program Files/Steam$ ./Steam.exe wine: cannot find

I had Steam/TF2 working. Using Suse 11.1 64-bit, Nvidia card/driver, 4Gb RAM, 2.6 Intel Quad CPU. ALSA sound (pulse audio uninstalled), Windows Vista, full settings in winecfg. My TF2 crashed and when I started Steam again, the Steam update downloaded and installed. Then Steam wouldn't start any more. I tried a new .wine dir. Followed instructions for removing/reinstalling Steam. Nada.

I have a brand new computer with a fresh install of Gentoo linux and wine. I have been able to install and run Steam, but Steam itself always seems to freeze some short time after starting it. Usually this takes place at the "Connecting account. . ." dialogue, but every now and then I can actually get a game of HL2 loading. I have never got as far as the HL2 menu being active. It does

Hi! We have problems with running games, regularly purchased from Valve, under Steam running on wine (a lot of versions tested, now we are on a current git tree). We are unsure, whether this can be a wine problem, and we don't have any possibility to test it with real windoze. I would like to ask, whether the symptoms described below are known and what to fix to make the games usable.

Hello, Well, first let me say - I've looked in the APP database for this game. I've tried to trouble shoot everything I've read on the site. Here's my system: Ubuntu 64-bit 8.04 AMD 5800+ 4gb of Winsor Ram Nvidia 8500 GT Intel onboard sound Here's what's happening: Whenever I load up a game on CSS, it crashes after a gun shot.
