Bioshock Demo problem

Hey all, I just downloaded the Bioshock PC demo and got it working on my Windows Hard drive. Now I've moved it over to Linux and I've used wine to install it.

When I first tried to run it I got an error message in the console saying a few .dll files were missing. I found them in System32 and that got me past that problem but now I get an error when I run the game which tells me to go here

Apparently it thinks there is some debugging software going on in the background?

I tried using WINEDEBUG=-all but it still said the same thing.

So my first question is, Is it just thinking wine is something it's not

And my second question is, why the hell would running debug software prevent me from running the game?!
