Scenario 1. It starts... can move around the menus fine... when try to go to internet on the multiplayer menu... freezes with hourglass.
Scenario 2. The menu loads... loads again... half-life console pops up... then on to scenario 1. I don't even know if the game plays... but it sure as heck loads... alot of help would be much appreciated... I'm new to linux but i used to play CS on windows and i've been working on getting this running for 72 hours straight already... i'm going to take a nap...

xqf-0.9.5-1 requires qstat >= 2.4a
xqf-0.9.5-1 requires wget
downloaded qstat... it works... downloaded wget... it works... RPM still doesn't like me. any idea?

Z||000009||Zeitgeist||01-25-2001||05:24 PM||zeitgeist@animenet.org||im talking about the one on this page
Z||000010||crac||01-27-2001||08:38 AM||crac_dude@yahoo.com||gernad is right, there are two howtos... before being so arrogant - i would suggest you - think a little bit more.
Z||000011||crazney||01-27-2001||03:51 PM||dhammerton@labyrinth.net.au||one howto is very old, and is only there as a second recourse - no point reading it really, as everything covered in tehre is also covered in mine.
Z||000012||Zeitgeist||01-27-2001||04:23 PM||zeitgeist@animenet.org||crac its covered in basicly in both, besides it says right in there how too on the first how-to
read the WHOLE howto!
well just to test you can find a server and connect to it. ie:
wine hl.exe -- hl.exe -console -game cstrike +connect
wine hl.exe -- hl.exe -console -game cstrike +connect [ip:port]
Z||000005||crazney||01-23-2001||01:14 AM||dhammerton@labyrinth.net.au||a howto is for reading, if u dun wanna read the howto (all of it) - dont bother starting.. dont jump the gun.
Z||000006||Gendred||01-24-2001||01:48 PM||genjala@hotmail.com||Yeah... i'm a moron... i saw a howto... and yes i actually read all of it... I installed linux... and i tried to get half-life to work... it didn't work... i asked for help... and i got my friggin head yelled off by you people... this is why I'm good at windows, at least the people don't accuse you of being a moron when you ask for help. I'll see you all in CS, when i get it running...
Z||000007||Zeitgeist||01-24-2001||05:53 PM||zeitgeist@animenet.org||well it does tell you how to just get wget off your linux cd..
