What follows is my WineX config file:
quote:
WINE REGISTRY Version 2
;; All keys relative to \\Machine\\Software\\Wine\\Wine\\Config
;;
;; MS-DOS drives configuration
;;
;; Each section has the following format:
;; [Drive X]
;; "Path"="xxx" (Unix path for drive root)
;; "Type"="xxx" (supported types are 'floppy', 'hd', 'cdrom' and 'network')
;; "Label"="xxx" (drive label, at most 11 characters)
;; "Serial"="xxx" (serial number, 8 characters hexadecimal number)
;; "Filesystem"="xxx" (supported types are 'msdos'/'dos'/'fat', 'win95'/'vfat', 'unix')
;; This is the FS Wine is supposed to emulate on a certain
;; directory structure.
;; Recommended:
;; - "win95" for ext2fs, VFAT and FAT32
;; - "msdos" for FAT16 (ugly, upgrading to VFAT driver strongly recommended)
;; DON'T use "unix" unless you intend to port programs using Winelib !
;; "Device"="/dev/xx" (only if you want to allow raw device access)

This is taken from my WineX installation. You will want to modify the drives section to fit your particular setup.
You especially will need to add a CD-ROM drive to the file, in this format:
[Drive F]
"Path" = "/mnt/cdrom"
"Type" = "cdrom"
"Filesystem" = "win95"
"Device" = "/dev/cdrom"
I would strongly recommend using a fake c drive for your installation of CounterStrike, rather than trying to play it off of an XP installation. I think wine/winex doesn't yet play all that well with an NTFS file system.
All you have to do is switch to your CD with your game on it, and type "winex [setup program name]", and your game should install.
However, if you'd like to try running it from your existing Windows installation, just simply change the:
[Drive C]
"Path" = "${HOME}/.transgaming/c_drive/"
To:
"Path" = "path to your Windows installation, usually /mnt/windows. In your case, it would be /mnt/nt2. (you want to point the config file to where the root C: drive would be if you were actually in Windows.
Hope this helps for you. I should warn you, that my WineX knowledge is rather limited, so I probably won't be of much help from this point. I'll still try to help you where I can. Although it definitely wouldn't hurt me to use it more than I do. ;) Linux User #522xxxx uses it regularly and could probably be more help. If you need more help, you could probably send him a private message (and tell him to get his ass in this thread.
;) )
Lord C:
w000000000t i have WineX working :D
Thanks so much for your help everyone.
I will now help my mate also install and config WineX so we can play CS :D
Cheers
Lord C:
Well, WineX works ... but not well. LOL!
I can open mIRC and winamp etc, but i cannot for the life of me get Counter-Strike to work.
I have tried installing from CD, running from NT partition.
setup.exe on CD just doesnt open, and if i run from the NT partition Half-Life loads but if i choose any menu it crashes, and CS is not in the "custom games" menu anyway :/

I dont understand why you would want to use winamp in linux, whats wrong with xmms? Also why mIRC, you have KVirc, Ksirc, Xchat, and more. On the Counter Strike issue, check out http://lhl.linuxgames.com/howto/half-life-HOWTO-0.4.1.html

Try dMSN, and if that sucks, try JMSN.
