One more thing. Mine plays windowed, but without the window meaning I cant move it or make it bigger or smaller. I know this is possible because I saw it in some screenshots on the wine site.
I just dont know how to do it. Anyone?

running winecfg, you can play with the window behaviour in the graphics section, or try editing the in-game video settings
now it runs full screen (what I really wanted)and I didnt change a thing.
Oh well
sorry-- to the pwerson asking my cpu model it's a Pentium M 1.7 i forget i think its the like 735? oh and I upgraded to 1 GGB ram- its a thinkpad. I also started using cedega as I find it plays source better, for me anyways.

If any of you have CSS working, could you please post some benchmarking results, I might consider switching to ubuntu if it runs well
I had it running relatively well under SUSE, but I prefer using Ubuntu. My graphics config is an ATI Radeon 9600 on a 1.5 gig athlon 1.5 gig of ram Shouldn't really a be huge issue. Are there any major issues with the ATI Driver (frgl) as I have installed the newest one from their site.
Computer Specs:
Amd 64 3200+
1 gig ram
6800 xt
My fps hang about 30-40 but range from 20-60 fps. It runs really well IMO, but it lacks anti aliasing.
BTW Im playing with direct x 8.1. 9 would play but the players would skip.
I'm gonna try it with Edgy instead of Dapper, and try a few different settings with the drivers. Appeared to be getting a lot of trouble from the winehq.org version of wine, sound errors on startup seem to be slowing it down. Will post the FPS and whatever command switches i use. My graphics config is a bit messed up as well.
I got a strange problem. Once steam loads up and asks me to log in I cannot type in the steam window. I am forced to type in the command line window I opened wine from.
Fixed: Emulated a desktop and it got my input

You can also sort it by right clicking in the username field and clicking paste. This should also fix it without having to emulate the desktop.
On another note, anyone had any trouble with sound being really choppy. I am almost convinced that this is what is killing my gameplay. The chipset is an N-Force 2 Ultra. I have tried the OSS, ALSA, ESOUND. Everything I can think of. Still getting errors with wine regaring the sound setup - error loading libjack.so.
The console report from wine also says - Your soundcard does not support direct access Using Slower Directsound HEL instead.
Any thoughts?
Fixed - Removed Radeon 9600 and replaced with 64mb Nvidia Mx440 - ATI's drivers really leave a lot to be desired.
If anyone knows how to successfuly get a 9600se working please let me know, I've tried just about every solution i can find on the internet....
