Summary: Steam client, when I click on game, windows pops up requesting latest version of DX Product: WineHQ Apps Database Version: unspecified Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: appdb-unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: faheyd@yahoo.com
I've installed wine-0.9.54 on ubuntu 7.10 (system updated with the latest patches, etc). Steam client installs and works fine after fixing gecko.
However, in the Steam client, when I click on CounterStrike Source game (or any steam game in the game tab), I get a little window that says, 'Steam - The latest version of DirectX is required' and it won't let the game start.
I get this error in spite of whatever '-dxlevel XX' I put in the command line or start up options.

I've not done a bug report before, so I hope I put it in the right place and right format.
