cvswinex help.


well i decided i wanted to run a few more games in linux so i decided right now i wanted to try the cvswinex version just to try it since i dont have a credit card. well after doing the compile and install. Well i decided to install warcraft 3 my favorit game. so i go to /mnt/cdrom and do cvswinex install.exe and it gives me a long error, i think ok i will install it through wine then and it installs fine. then i try to run it through cvswinex and it looks like its going to open but then kinda stops at this.

Loading required GL library /usr/lib/libGL.so.1
Loading required GL library /usr/lib/libGL.so.1

then i try it in wine and it works fine.

next i try steam and besides for being a tad slow it works fine. so i am wondering whats going on with cvswinex. I am running mandrake 10 on the 2.6 kernel i also tried the ati drivers that came with mandrake and the fglrx 3.7.6 drivers both dont work(I have an ati radeon 8500). does anyone know whats going on? you dont know do you think it might be the mandrake 10.0 community distro? Or is the cvs version of winex crap?

Crap i just noticed i posted this in the software section can it be moved to the game section please.

It surta dosent work all that works is steam but thats out of the two games i have tried. pluse it the cvswinex version. If you want to get it goto http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/...?articleid=26. just telling you all i got working with it was steam. also i went and made a shell out of this http://ting.homeunix.org/cvs_wine/GetCVSWineX_Pthreads and executed it and when it asks what web browser to use i said "i am a newb do it for me" or something like that. It is an option.
