wine users - Oct 2001 - pc freezes when trying to load hl

hi there,

i read a lot here, but i didn't found any answer for my prolem:

my system is mandake 8.0 final
i compiled the wine-20010305 using ./configure --enable-opengl --prefix=/usr
then used make and after that make install. everything seems to work (i can
run the hl-installer).

so, now, when i mount my cdrom and then do wine SETUP.EXE in the cdrom-dir,
first, the sierra logo appears and it goes up to 99% and ending with an
empty error. now i switch to the console window i started SETUP.EXE with,
press Ctrl+C and run wine SETUP.EXE again. now it goes like it has to go
(sound test works, installation completes without hanging or an error).

after everything finished, i changed to the hl directory (in my case it's
/usr/local/wine/games/hl/) and type
wine -desktop hl.exe -- hl.exe -console -windowed
and then, when i press enter, a black window appears and after i short time
the monitor freezes (can't move mouse or swtich to other windows using
Alt-TAB) and nothing works. i have to press the reset button.
the console window reads, before everything is hanging sometimes AVITIME
still running! What should I do?
or sometimes it ends up just with stub.
what could that be?
which packages should be installed for compiling?????

any help would be very nice

greetings,
Tilman Jeske

Try 20010510 or the latest CVS (NOT the latest release though).

That's not the issue, but I does prove that something is running (it's
an
error about playing the logo in the HL main screen.)

Are you sure OpenGL is set up right? Try it w/o -desktop and maybe with
-managed.
Save the output to a log file, wine -managed -- hl.exe -console -windowed >
log.
