Steam with Wine gets stuck at login

I have been trying to get Steam to work with Wine so that I can play non-linux games on my Arch Linux system. Steam works perfectly without Wine but when launching the Wine version of Steam, it gets stuck at the login screen. When I type my username and password and click log in, it just loads forever. It even sends me the activation code for logging in on a new computer to my email.

I have tried running it through PlayWithLinux and removing the "clientregistry.blob" library from winecfg. I have googled the problems in several ways but nothing seems to apply.

I would be hugely grateful if anyone has a potential solution for this! Thanks in advance.

Re: Steam with Wine gets stuck at login

I've been having this issue for months now. Steam just doesn't work through wine anymore due to an unimplemented function - which is a shame as theres a few yet unported games I liked to play.
Here's the winehq bug thread https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35690

Re: Steam with Wine gets stuck at login

Try using a win32 prefix (maybe you also have to set that to winXP not sure), works for me

I don't have problem with it, i run Steam trough Wine - 1.7.43. On newer i had graphic problems with fonts.

Thanks! This command did it:

WINEPREFIX=~/prefix32 WINEARCH='win32' wine 'wineboot'

Re: Steam with Wine gets stuck at login

UPDATE: The problem reoccurs after rebooting.

I tried:

sudo rm -r ~/.wine

WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine winecfg

Problem still persists - Steam just keeps getting stuck at login.

Re: Steam with Wine gets stuck at login

install all of the packages mentioned as optional in the wine package, should get rid of the missing lib32 warnings

I'm assuming you mean "wine_gecko" and "wine-mono"? They were already installed but upon reinstalling them, I could get into Steam. After restart though, the problem is back.

EDIT: I also noticed something now. When i run "WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine winecfg" I get:

fixme:ole:RemUnknown_QueryInterface No interface for iid {00000019-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}

Re: Steam with Wine gets stuck at login

I am also having the same issue. It's a pretty fresh install. I do have other games running on the same prefix. The errors and symptoms are exactly the same. Pope Unleashed have you had any progress since posting?
