Steam FIX
For all you people who can't play Steam since the latest update...there IS a solution!
I found this thread at Transgaming.org http://www.transgaming.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=390 Basically: Quote:
DLLs can be grabbed from here |
Thanks for sharing the info! I'll try it later when I get home.
|
I followed the instructions, but what do you mean by "kill wine/wineserver off."?
I'm a noob to cedega. I ran a ps -ef|grep wine and killed all the pids I could, but I noticed wineserver never went away. I tried to run Steam anyways and still got the blank splash & crash. |

the correct name for the second dll is shdocvw.dll. I'm just trying the fix now
edit: I had no luck. At the point where steam should work i get an error dialog. Steam.exe (Main Exception): Win32 Structured Exception at 444AFEFC: Attempt to read from virtual address 1145765628 without appropriate access rights. I'm running winex, as user "tom". |
I changed hardward (from a Dell GX250 to a 350), so I had to reinstall FC2, reinstall Cedega, and when I reinstalled Steam and followed the instructions it worked.
|
The fix worked for me!
**make sure you edit the CORRECT config file. I have Wine, WineX, and Cedega and it was confusing which was the correct one. Type locate cedega in your konsole and it should tell you where Cedega is installed. |
Well, it almost works for me. My FPS kinda suck and in-game text is almost illegible, anyone else have that problem? Also, I can't get DoD to download. It just sits at "Updating Day of Defeat" and doesn't do anything.

FPS is fine for me. I'm playing in OpenGL mode on 1024x768. 2.56 GHz Radeon 9700 Pro, 3.2.5 drivers 512 MB RAM Mandrake 9.1 |

Nope, it's for the error where CS crashes out when you start it.

Is steam working on wine now?
I have read how some people can get steam working and then it stops after the updates. My question is as of this date has any one got it to work and if so how?
