[SOLVED]Arch Linux / Counter-Strike 1.6/CZ Issue

[fullyspenged]

Hardware: nvidia 8800GT, propietary drivers, matching 32-bit libraries

When I launch CS, it freezes on the first screen for about 5 seconds then I see this in the terminal:

Code: Select all

err:ntlm:SECUR32_initNTLMSP ntlm_auth was not found or is outdated. Make sure that ntlm_auth >= 3.0.25 is in your path.
err:ntlm:SECUR32_initNTLMSP Usually, you can find it in the winbind package of your distribution.

and a Visual C++ runtime error in wine saying that it had terminated bla bla.

I once got it to run, I made absolutely NO CHANGES to it, but it ran. Then I loaded it again after closing it and I got the exact same error. I am running arch64 so I'm using the Wine-1.1.13-2 binary from the openSUSE repository, it works great in uTorrent and in steam but I can't play CS or CS:CZ. Glxgears runs great, Google Earth runs great, uTorrent runs great.

I don't know where to start, google didn't help.

Any ideas?

When I launch CS, it freezes on the first screen for about 5 seconds then I see this in the terminal:

Did you disable in game steam community?

Disabled it now, didn't help. I've always hated that thing though.

I got CZ to load, started a server, played for 4 seconds (with great fps) then it froze completely.

This is just weird as hell.

Woop! Found a solution!

New xorg.conf settings:

Code: Select all

Section "Device"
    Identifier     "Device0"
    Driver         "nvidia"
    VendorName     "NVIDIA Corporation"
    BoardName      "GeForce 8800 GT"
    Option "NoLogo"     "True"
    Option "RenderAccel"        "True"
    Option "NoRenderExtension"  "False"
    Option "TripleBuffer"       "True"
    Option "AllowGLXWithComposite"      "True"
    Option "NvAGP"      "0"
    Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals"  "True"
    Option "AllowSHMPixmaps"    "1"
EndSection

I'm certain that "AllowGLXWithComposite" solved my problem. Works great now.
