wine users - Mar 2001 - missing textures with counterstrike?

I finally got my halflife running (don't ask how...it just decided to 
work for some reason).  Anyway there's a couple problems: first off once 
cstrike loads and I'm in the game, there's a lot of missing textures. 
Also any status area around the screen with text is just a yellow-shaded 
kinda transparent box.  I'm using NVidia drivers on a geforce 256 (elsa 
erazor x if it matters at all).  All other GL progs work fine.

The second problem is that it refuses to run full screen.  Not really a 
problem I guess, but an annoyance.  To get it to start, I have to have 
it in a window.  Then it hangs at "Loading...".  I click the close box
and double-click in the Loading... window and it comes back to life. 
But with no close box to click it stays forever.  Weird.

well, to answer my own question, I tried replacing the 1024 fonts in the 
valve directory with 1026 (per instruction i saw somewhere on the net). 
  This actually broke the scoreboard fonts, etc (they're readable, but 
all squashed and stuff).  But somehow this brought my textures back to 
life.  All i gotta do is fix my sound and I'm golden.
