Probelms with Steam and Wine

[ekosz]

Hi there I've been having some problems with Steam.

I insalled steam using this website: http://www.fsckin.com/2007/10/15/how-to-run-team-fortress-2-half-life-2-hl2-ep-12-in-ubuntu-using-wine/

But I'm doing it a little different then he says. I never bought a hard copy of the Orenge box. I bought it right off of steam, while on my windows side. I want to just re-download it again to my linux side. When I click on the install buton in Steam to download I get:

Steam.exe (main exseption) Win32 StructuredExspetion at 7B967C65
Attempt to read from virtual address 0 without appropriate access rights

so what should I do to fix this?

Also do you think I could just drag my steam files from my windows side to my fake c:/ on my linux? Would that work?

Thank you all!!

I do the same thing you did (Use windows as well as linux and share games between them). A common problem I have is logging on. It seems STEAM won't always log itself out when you switch OS's. Try logging out and logging back in.

were you eventually able to get it to work?
