Try running it now. If that doesn't help - open winecfg (type winecfg in terminal) go to drives tab and auto detect them all, go to sound tab - select only ONE driver - preferably alsa, elect driver emulation and set "acceleration to emulation" (if alsa was selected switch to oss). Try running the game. If this doesn't help either - in winecfg go to graphics and disable pixel and vertex shaders. try running the game. If that won't help... well I'm out of ideas. P.S Paste any console output you will get here, and tell us which distro do you have. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
