[Wine] Freezing probleme with Steam...

[David St-Hilaire]

Hi all!

I'm currently experiencing problems with Steam. I wanted to install Steam
yesterday so I followed what was said in the appDB site. The installation
worked just fine. Then Steams auto-starts and updated itself successfully.
After the update, I get prompted for user/password to log into steam. If I
put my user with a wrong password, I Steam gives me an error message telling
me I've entered an incorrect password. So far, so good. Then if I put my
good password and try to log in, after maybe 10 secs wine/steam seems to
just freeze. I just can't log into steam.

Am I the only one who is expreriencing this? Is this bug is specific only to
steam or is it a general wine bug?

I've searched the wine-users mailing list archive and found 2 post which
seemed to talk about the problem I am experiencing.

Unfortunately, no answers were replied to either one of these 2 posts. What
could I do to fix this problem... I event tried to compile by hand the
latest version of samba (3.0.26) because I had a warning telling me that my
current version (3.0.24) was too old.

Thank you very much for your help! I'd really love to be able to play DoD/CS
on linux...!
