Summary: Steam crashes after putting up initial dialog if corefonts not installed Product: Wine Version: 1.1.44 Platform: x86 URL: http://steampowered.com OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Keywords: download Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dank@kegel.com
Steam gets as far as asking if you want to take the hardware server, and then crashes. +relay shows that right before the seh: there was an assertion failure and some calls that probably referenced a font. Sure enough, doing 'sudo apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer' worked around the problem.
