As recommended by other posts I did an 'export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib32' to get cedega working with the nvidia driver. Now sorry for the silly questions but...

does this change things permanently (and maybe adversly affect something else)?

how do I set things up so that when I run cedega I do not have to worry about this?

Thanks, Andy.

I don't know anything about cedega, but I guess the idea goes like this: create a file in /etc/init.d/ called xxcedega (xx being a number, I'm still not quite sure about the importance of this number) and add a line:

Oups ... Not sure it's a good idea !
I suppose vpoinot means /etc/env.d (and not init.d). But I think it's a bad idea because this 'll change the env. variable for all OS !!

If you really need this env. var. to be set to run cedega (I think that's a Game that runs under transgaming winex), it's better to write a small script that :
1) export the env variables you need
2) launch the game... (or software)
