I really need help, I tried installing several times already and I'm getting the same problem no matter what I do. I install the game and everything seems to go well during install. After installation I try to start the game and it gets stuck to the splash screen. I looked in Google and found that this problem is not related to Linux or Wine, some other people have been experiencing the same problem on a windows machine, and all they had to do to fix it is reinstall the sound driver. The Wine sound test checks out. Also, I tried installing the Realtek sound card driver for Linux with no results. When I try to start the game 'htop' shows UT3 process running. It goes until it's memory is at 13.5% and then 1 of the processors goes to 0 and the other one stays on 100. It doesn't stop until I kill it. Here is the Terminal output: Code: tom@tom-desktop:~$ /usr/share/playonlinux/playonlinux --run "Unreal Tournament 3" PlayOnLinux v3.7.2 Checking python : [ Ok ] bt_audio_service_open: connect() failed: Connection refused (111) bt_audio_service_open: connect() failed: Connection refused (111) bt_audio_service_open: connect() failed: Connection refused (111) bt_audio_service_open: connect() failed: Connection refused (111) AL lib: alAuxEffectSlot.c:507: alcDestroyContext(): deleting 4 AuxiliaryEffectSlot(s) 1 more thing worth mentioning. I've recently replaced my OS from Ubuntu 8.04 to 9.10, and since then Wine has not been itself. a lot of things that should work smoothly don't work (I also tried to install office, and it gives me error when I try to start Word.) If any other info is necessary I'll be happy to provide it. tnx[/code]
