im running 2 gigs of ram, an ati radeon 2600 hd, and Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600

ive been trying to get civ4 to work for the past week under ubuntu.
the only other thing ive tried other than wine, is virtualbox. and that didnt work out. but i heard that wine has worked, so im stuck trying to get my game to initialize.

also, if it helps, i think it crashes somewhere past xml, i think in init?

Reinstall your graphics drivers and make sure you have the necessary 32 bit opengl libraries installed as well.

No, but please disable compiz, it interferes with running programs under
Wine.

turning of compiz gave me the same result. i think i will delete the game and for a fresh wine install.

which versions of wine have been known to work for civ4?

Which version of Civ 4? There are many. Check the AppDB for info on your version.

well i have beyond the sword and warlords, but i would be content with just civ4 if it works. im pretty sure i have the 1.52 patch

Did you follow the howto in the AppDB for installing Civ 4?

But 10.04 with Gnome and Compiz disabled items (windows) vanish.
