Steam client
I managed to install the steam client on my redhat 9 box with wine.
I followed instructions here: linux-gamers.net/modules/wfsection/article.php?page=1&articleid=17 After installing, steam is updating (before i used the howto steam would not update). Everything perfect for now... logging into steam account....ok :) launching steam.......crash :( <=== "client callback thread error" see my console output from here on wine starts a debugger and ends with following error message: Steam.exe (main exception): WIN32 StructuredException at 42BF07F4: attempt to execute an instruction whose operation is not allowed in the current machine mode. a copy of my console output can be found there: comarez.wankstaz.com/steamoutput.txt Perhaps it is usefull for someone. anyways if somebody's interested in Steam, u should give it a try and let people now :) With some minds on it, we might be playing steam tomorrow. greetz |
how did you get that far? when i installed the CVS and ran it this came up [root@localhost Documents]# wine ie6setup.exe
Could not stat /floppy (No such file or directory), ignoring drive A: Could not stat /root/.wine/${HOME} (No such file or directory), ignoring drive Y: Drive Z: unknown drive type L"${CXOFFICE_DRIVE_TYPE_HACK}", defaulting to 'hd'. Could not load graphics driver 'x11drv' err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization failed, status c0000142 :Pengy: :confused: |

@ Kupo:
those error messages aren't that bad. It's just another way for saying that your wine config file is not properly edited. U should edit the sections givin by the console output of wine. Could not stat /floppy (No such file or directory), ignoring drive A: Could not stat /root/.wine/${HOME} (No such file or directory), ignoring drive Y: Drive Z: unknown drive type L"${CXOFFICE_DRIVE_TYPE_HACK}", defaulting to 'hd'. edit drive A properly towards your linux configuration ie: drive A "PATH" = "/dev/fd0" etcetera i deleted drive Y & Z. Could not load graphics driver 'x11drv' err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization failed, status c0000142 Im not familiar with those 2, thus i can not help u with it. I've just started with linux about 2 months ago, therefore i am also a n00b . btw the wine config file is located under /home/..../.wine/conf or /root/.wine/conf if u have installed it as su. greetings |
oh wow nice link kudos :) but i have wineX 3.1 CVS, wont it conflict with wineX CVS? i had to uninstall wine CVS when i installed wineX because of these errors... or is wineX better? im so confused :Pengy: :confused: :Pengy: :confused: :Pengy: :confused: :Pengy:

i dont know sorry, all i know is this guy used the standard wine, not wineX, but if u read he has given up from steam after they updated it and it would no longer run. i dont know if it will run now or not. but good look on it.
hope u can get it working |
okay, wine is installed and everything, i get steam running, i type in my login/pass and i get a error saying "could not connect to steam network This could be due to a problem with your internet connection, or with the steam network. Please visit www.steampowered.com for more info."
any way to fix this? |
on windows version some times means severs are overloaded or login is wrong
check to see if steam is making alog file for it selfs and try reading it |
kupo check the console output.
It says it can't find rsabase.dll or something. I copied that file from my windoz partition to my 'System' folder under wine. then u are able to connect to steam network..... but here it crashes immediatly after connecting. |
i uninstalled wine and reinstalled now i get
err:win:CreateWindowExA bad class name "RICHEDIT" when i try to install the steaminstall_cs thing, argh this is confusing... |
Im going to be using slackware linux as my OS. will i also be able to run steam on my system? i love cs. its my fav. game from all the others. it would be great to have it running on my slackware linux.
|
okay i got passed that little thing and now i can run steam but is till get the same "could not connect to steam HAHAHAHAHA IM VALVE AND IM ANTI-LINUX" error :( here is whats in my konsole
fixme:commctrl:InitCommonControlsEx Unknown class! dwICC=0x8000 fixme:win32:PeekNamedPipe function not implemented client callback thread error fixme:crypt:CRYPT_VerifyImage (rsabase.dll, 0x4041c4b8): not verifying imageFailed to load dll "rsabase.dll" fixme:crypt:CryptAcquireContextA Could not load crypto provider from DLL "`" |
check my last post kupo...about the rsabase.dll
|
hmm okay, i will download that off the net i think, will report updates later..
|
