Try sending a pm to sindwiller, I'm sure he'll compile a kernel for you real quick

Hi dissonance!

Well, before we can help you (anyone else using Linux here?^^), we need to know what distro, Wine version (i'd recommend the newest version from source or from an unofficial repository/package for your distro) and Wine patches you use.

hi sindwiller!

ubuntu 6.10, gnome/metacity, wine-0.9.29 (used synaptec to get), and no wine patches.

i see you're as stumped as i am.

think cedega would do it?

I get the same problem as you have. Hammer seems to run, but when I try to make a empty map, I get the same artifacts as you have. That's because Wine has problems with wrapping most of all WGL functions used with the Win32 API (sadly).

I don't think Cedega would handle it better. I've tried another OGL modeler for Windows with both Cedega and Wine. Wine gave artifacts like on the screenshot; Cedega could'nt even get the program over loading.

EDIT: And Wine kinda needs 99% CPU to keep Hammer alive.

Did you tried Quark on Linux yet? It has HL2 support... but I never tried it myself.
