Catalyst version is 10.5, driver packaging version 8.723.1. Log of typical session (http://pastebin.org/308923), from using the command Code: ~/.PlayOnLinux/WineVersions/1.1.42/usr/bin/wine /home/matt/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Steam/Steam.exe &> out.txt and then opening Spore from the Steam Library. (I know I shouldn't be using 1.1.42 with my 1.2-rc1 prefix, but oh well) Here's a rundown of what happened: Opened Steam. dxdllreg.exe crashed - trying to remove the registry key for this is futile as Steam adds it again. Opened Spore from the game library. Steam tries (and fails, if the log is anything to go by) to install DirectX 9, even though DirectX 9 is installed and working. After the install script is executed, Spore runs. There is a bit of corruption for a split-second before the logos appear. When on the galaxy screen, the graphics start stuttering. At this point, I closed Spore. Even a short time on the galaxy screen produced quite a number of GLSL errors. Closed Wine. I then downloaded a new 1.2-rc2 package for Wine and tried that. The resultant output is here. (http://pastebin.org/308958), and Spore never even runs (having silently crashed).
