------- Additional Comments From adam.lofts@gmail.com 2006-02-06 12:49 ------- I hit this bug aswell in a different environment, this solution might help some people.
On amd64 ubuntu dapper i have a 32-bit chroot with wine cvs built. In order to avoid this bug i have to do:
linux32 --3gb gnome-terminal --disable-factory
and then in the new terminal as normal,
WINEDEBUG="-all" wine "c:\Program Files\Steam\steam.exe"
