wine users - Jan 2011 - Unity 3D Ubuntu

Installed unity perfectly, no error whatsoever, although when i run it, whatever
path i put in it to create a new project in, it says "Specified path is not
valid(should be a name of non existing or empty directory).

I also tested using Unity Loader, and it shows the splashscreen until it crashes
Ubuntu.

I'm using Ubuntu 10.10, Maverick Meerkat.
I can run it fine on Windows 7, without any lag whatsoever.

I have Directx 10, and it is on in Wine.

Please answer, as i have no idea on how to solve this.

What version of Wine are you using?  If it is not Wine 1.3.11, upgrade 
to it please.

How did you install Directx10?

Also, be aware that this forum is user supported and it is Saturday.

Ah, i mean that my graphics card supports directx 10, as in my graphics card
isn't old and outdated :P

I'm using the latest, i think, as i installed it almost precisly an hour ago
from the package manager.

I also have the latest ATI drivers for my card.
