it almost works for me (i wasnt able to install dcom, says it cant determine executeable type), i can load servers, and when i goto connect, i get the cs background, but wine crashes at that point.

Code:

00000030 (D) C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\xxx@xxxx.com\counter-strike\hl.exe
  00000003a    0
  000000036    0
  000000033    0
  000000031    0 <==
WineDbg terminated on pid 30

I can't install ie6, It says that it was unable to download the files because it doesn't detect my internet connection...

Any clue?

Grab winecfg. It comes with all of the things needed to install ie, vbruntimes and dcom (although the script needs a little editing as it is a touch outdated).

Everything installs fine for me and Steam comes up, but the keyboard doesn't enter the application (the mouse works fine). The keyboard is just not working in wine (although whatever I type is showing up in the console window).

right-click on a textbox in steam, click paste or cut or so, then it sets focus.
i dont come across my problem, it cannot connect to steam network, i now triblechecked my configs, and did the procedure at least four times, no luck, anyone could post his steps from a from-scratch wine install with versions of wine etc, i would be happy ;)

I installed Steam, then it started updating, then came the login screen. I logged in, then it started updating Steam Platform files. Then, right after it's finished, it shuts down and gives me this error:

Code:
Win32 MiniDump Helper version 1.0.0.0 (c) Copyright 2002 Valve LLC All rights reserved.

Expected argument 'ProcessId'.
 
Usage: WriteMiniDump [@argfile] [/?|h|help] [/v|version] [/Type <value>] <ProcessId> <DumpFile>
 
@argfile        Read arguments from a file.
/?              Show usage.
/v              Show version.
/Type <value>   Select dump type values are:
                   normal
                   full
ProcessId       Select process id for which to generate a dump
DumpFile        Select path of output dump file
 
Shutting down. . .


Then, a few seconds later, I get an error screen from Steam. Now, every time I try to start Steam, I get the first error and nothing else.

I followed the tutorial correctly, using Wine-20031016. Even IE works. Any ideas?

No, wait, I fixed it! :D

I opened ~/.wine/config and copied the whole [AppDefaults\\iexplore.exe\\DllOverrides] section to the bottom and named it [AppDefaults\\Steam.exe\\DllOverrides]. Steam starts fine now.


By the way, the only change I had to do to these sections as described here was to add "mshtml" = "native, builtin" so it would look like this:

Code:

[AppDefaults\\iexplore.exe\\DllOverrides]
; For ie6
"*comctl32" = "builtin"
; For Outlook97
"mapi" = "native, builtin"
"mapi32" = "native, builtin"
; Native dlls needed for various parts of the install
"ole32" = "native, builtin"
"compobj" = "native, builtin"
"ole2" = "native, builtin"
"ole2nls" = "native, builtin"
"ole2conv" = "native, builtin"
"ole2prox" = "native, builtin"
"ole2thk" = "native, builtin"
"storage" = "native, builtin"
"olepro32" = "native, builtin"
"rpcrt4" = "native, builtin"
"oleaut32" = "native, builtin"
"msvcrt" = "native, builtin"
"wininet" = "native, builtin"
; for the ie runonce
"setupapi" = "native, builtin"
"devenum" = "native, builtin"
"quartz" = "native, builtin"
"urlmon" = "native"
"shdocvw" = "native, builtin"
"jscript" = "native, builtin"
"wintrust" = "native, builtin"
"shlwapi" = "native, builtin"
"secur32" = "native, builtin"
"crypt32" = "native, builtin"
"ddraw" = "native, builtin"
"mshtml" = "native, builtin"
; allow launching user.exe (for Remedy)
"*user.exe" = "native,builtin"
; default for all other dlls
"*" = "builtin, native"

Does steam just start, or are you actually able to play it? If so, would you mind posting the exact steps required to make it work?

i read somewhere that if you have just the background, you need to install tahoma font in x11.
i've still haven't done it, and i'm at the point as you are, background and nothing else :(

actually if you dont have the tahoma font, you see NO text on the login screen or servers/games/options screens as they all use tahoma, the splash when loading a game is what im referring to and then wine crashes, im gonna try the fix the guy above posted and see how that goes, anyone actually had any luck getting it to run and what version of wine arew you running? im using wine20031016

CStrike : Steam gathering "illegal" information about users
Posted by Czar on 2003/9/4 9:53:25 (38025 reads)

It has come to the attention of the community that Steam by VALVe software has been (and still is) gathering huge amounts of information off of personal computers that have Steam installed.

1) Browse to steam dir
2) Search for gcache.gcf
3) Open the 400+ meg file in a hex editor
4) Search for 'kazaa' and 'mp3'
----
5) Ponder
6) Curse and uninstall steam

Wtf? Why the hell is steam looking at kazaa user names, mp3 contents, HTM records, and a whole lot of other #### I particularly don't want Valve having detailed records on passed through an undocumented protocol?


Use this message a warning to Steam users; I would not suggest leaving this massive data gatherer called Steam on any computer that you would like to keep private.

The link on steampowered.com EXPLAINS why this information is there, and it's because of the way the cache file is created, so that when you open the ifile in a text editor, you are actually looking at some old files which were on that specific place on your hard drive.

Steam starts fine here, with a out of the box installation of Wine.
My first problem though was no text, fixed it by copying my dads Fonts directory from his WinXP installation..
Now the only problem i have is that Steam cant connect with any Steam Servers..
Network and everything works perfectly, because i can connect to irc with mIRC!
Any ideas to that?


Well, Polden, I think it's just your Shorewall/Firewall that blocks the port Steam uses, I don't remember which ones it is...

But I agree with most.. Steam sucks slimey.... :x

And hello everybody btw, this is my first post here, I hope to get a good time here and in my just recently installed Gentoo Linux :)

It's been gorgeous right since the install..

I love you Gentoo! :)
