Steam and Luxor

Post by oogravyoo »

I decided to dabble with Mint and loaded it on our Notebook which is primarily for my wife, one thing I need to get working stat is Luxor quest for the afterlife through steam..

I have loaded steam and installed Luxor however when I launch luxor it will start loading (steam screen) and then disappear..


any ideas how I can get this running so I can then start learning about mint/linux.. need to make her happy :)


tnx

What is your wine version? Do any other steam games work? Have you checked the AppDB for that game?

Cheers,

Do that (but update to the most recent one), the reason why I asked is that the good ol' steam guys made an update which triggered a bug in wineserver. Probably you were hitting that bug that crashes the whole wine (not just steam, but everything that runs on Wine).

Good Luck,
