[NTLUG:Discuss] Install Help, please

[Paul Drew]

Hello,
I had installed, and got Counter-Strike working with Wine-X however there 
are problems when you connect to a server running Valve Anti-Cheat it thinks 
that your running a cheat by being in linux, and it kicks, and bans you from 
the server. Just a word of warning, I got myself banned quite alot looking 
for servers that don't run that. Good Luck.
