To play as a CS client, use winex3. Install HL and the very lastest full patch or it won't run right. HL runs about 99% as well on my box as it ever did in Windows, and I get far better pings under Linux when playing Team Fortress. Once you get Half-Life up and running correctly, it should then be just a matter of installing CS.

To run HL go:

winex3 .transgaming/c_drive/SIERRA/Half-Life/hl -console -opengl

To run CS go:

winex3 -workdir ".transgaming/c_drive/SIERRA/Half-Life" hl.exe -console -nocdaudio -game cs -opengl

The only place to get the latest version of winex3.3 is at transgaming.com. You can try this older free version as well.

I installed steam very easily using winex 3.2.

I downloaded the installer from steampowered.com and opened it with winex. It installed very easily, and I have no problems with it.

Figured it would be by now. You'll have to go with the CVS version if you want free. I use Cedega and subscribe to transgaming. The cost is minimal and saves me time.
