[SOLVED] Preferred frontend for wine and a Counter-Strike problem

Hello,

Whats the preferred front end for wine or should I use the vanilla version? I'm planning to play Steam Counter-Strike (1.6 version), maybe WOW.

Also, if someone knows. I installed bin32-wine from arch-games and playonlinux from AUR on 64bit host. Wine 1.1.33.  Installed fonts - verdana, tahoma, arial. And Steam. When I load Counter-Strike 1.6, I can only see the background. I don't see menu or console. I can press buttons blind and hear them click. I can type in console blind. But I don't see anything except for the background.

Actually, bin32-wine does not even load any more. Only playonlinux does.

Sounds like bin32-wine is broken or  there is a regression in wine with CS.
I would just use bash scripts + wine as frontend.

If it's a bug report it http://arch-games.twilightlair.net/proj … epo/issues

I have Nvidia 9600GT and 190 drives from nvidia package. Current arch linux kernel. 3d tests work fine.

Basically when I start CS in OpenGL mode it says "ChoosePixelFormat failed". When I start in software mode I don't have the menus or any fonts in there.
