Boogies Cybercafe Problem with Starcraft
We are currently trying to install the game Starcraft at Boogies
Cybercafe. We are running it under WINE, using the directions
at http://www.linuxgames.com/starcraft.shtml
Starcraft seems to work great except for one big snafu. When
the player tries to use network mode (called Battle.net) the
whole thing locks up tighter than a drum. We actually had to
kill the x server it was running on, and we still had problems.
So far I have not had any luck finding any documentation on
using starcraft in linux with battle.net - save to say that
there were multiple messages on slashdot saying that it could
not be done. Anyone out there have any experience with this
sort of thing? I'm still searching of course, but if someone
knows of a quick fix or anything let me know. It would also be
acceptable if we just dumped the whole battle.net thing, but we
don't know how to do that either :) Any help would be
appreciated.
