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. So I got patient and awaited some Wine updates. I had wine 1.1.16 at the
time and now even with 1.1.18, Steam will still not load. Here is what I get:

I'm completely lost. Anyone have any ideas. I posted in the Steam forums
in the AppDB and had a few who experienced similar problems. Anyone know of a
fix. I searched and have come up empty.
Any help or a general direction as to the nature of the problem would be greatly
appreciated.
