           Summary: Source engine games don't even launch
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.9
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: JimiJames.Bove at gmail.com


If I launch any game that uses hl2.exe, the launching window will finish and
close, the process will pop up in the process monitor for a few seconds, and
then just go away. The game never launches. I don't know if I have to specify
any debug mode, but simply running it in the terminal provides zero output
during the launching of the game.

This has been going on since 1.3.6 or 1.3.7, though it wasn't those updates
that caused it. Nothing at all on my computer, in fact, was updated when this
problem popped up, and updates for both WINE and Steam haven't fixed it, nor
has running winepulse or killing PulseAudio before launching WINE. It also
isn't fixed by every step that Valve and the Wine AppDB offer for fixing
issues, including -nointro, -dxlevel81, and disabling Steam Community In-Game.
It isn't fixed by a virtual desktop or a different Windows version setting.
That's all I've tried so far.

I'm on Ubuntu 10.04 x64, kernel version 2.6.32.22.23 and I miss playing GMod
and TF2 :(
