I am also at this exact same spot. I am running Ubuntu 12.04 with wine 1.5 and winetricks. Unfortunately, I had missed the part about making a new user, before starting the install of everything. So, originally, I started the install under the user 'root'. Everything went well, until I was trying to install Steam, and got this error: fixme:storage:create_storagefile Storage share mode not implemented. I found out, I should not have been installing under the user 'root'. So, I uninstalled wine1.5 (under 'root' user): apt-get remove --purge wine1.5 apt-get remove --purge winetricks rm -r ~/.wine And then, logged in and 'arma' user, and made a new screen. When I try to work thru the steps again, under the new user, I notice: Xvfb :99 -screen 0 1024x768x16 -ac & says Xvfb is already running, which makes sense, because it is, still under the 'root' user. Then, when I get to: apt-get install wine1.5 winetricks Under the 'arma' user, I have to change it to: [b]sudo [/b]apt-get install wine1.5 winetricks I thought I should NOT be trying to run wine under 'root'/sudo?! Then, when I run the next command: winetricks --no-isolate Steam I have to change it to (lower case 's'): winetricks --no-isolate steam It attempts to install steam, but hangs on: fixme:storage:create_storagefile Storage share mode not implemented. I have tried searching the 'googlz' for any help, and I am having a hard time sorting this out... Any help? Let me know if I missed any details, etc. - warezit Edit: I also checked the md5 checksum in the winetricks script (in /usr/bin/winetricks) and it matches the latest download of the SteamInstaller.msi fa053c268b6285741d1a1392c25f92c5cb2a6ffb Re-edit: I am obviously a *nix n00b. (as a side note) Do I just need to restart the machine? - w
