yea thats pretty much it has any one bean able to play css on wine with an integrated graphics similar to the intel gma 950

or is it eaven posible

i dont know if this would help or not but i have bean able to use the aiglx desktop effects and beryl's cube desktop without any lag would this be equivalent to playing a game

im asking this because when i try to start counterstrike source with steam it launches the game but then it freezes in the menu were it says loading in the bottom right corner
i have also tried this with astro pop from the market place and half life source

would this be the graphics card not being powerful enough to launch the game, a driver issue, or what?

i have a pretty good system although the graphics are the definit bottle neck

dell e520
intel core 2 duo 1.8 800 mhz
1 gig ram 667 mhz
250gig hdd
intel gma 950 (i believe)

I ran CS 1.6 with a GMA950 but my FPS was very low, and I suppose playing CS:S is worse (if even possible).

Seems like that card is optimized for eye-candy-use (some of the effects in Vista, Beryl etc.), and have a hard time playing anything heavier than games based on the Quake3-engine with a nice result..
