I was testing to see if it could play again (after like 10 restarts in 10 days of not playing at all...not even loading the game up), and it worked better than a charm.
Then it crashed after about an hour of gameplay...hey...it happens. Then after a reboot, I ran it the same way I always do, and it came up as 1024x768 (which is correct) but in the upperleft part of the screen and leaving my desktop in tact. What I mean to say is that it was NOT running fullscreen (as I have told it to with the launch options). So it loaded and I quit, openned up the games list in steam again and ran it again: same result. However, after I quit HL2 again, I decided to restart steam, maybe it was a wineserver bug.
System crash...
Lame. So I tried to reboot only to have a problem with fsck's manditory 30 day check and my AMDx2 processor creating kernel panic EVERY TIME (another bug for another forum, but sort of icing on the cake, none-the-less). After working around the fsck problem, I booted up and the screen loaded the same way, the error way, only this time I exitted steam after I quit HL2. I'll try a restart thinking maybe it was just a wine error or something. More to come as I test... this bug is annoying, but interesting.
