This error keeps scrolling on the debug output, even though Steam is running and Bioshock is downloading (I'm trying Steam/Bioshock on a fresh install of Arch Linux). How do I get rid of it, or is it not possible?

As in Kill PlayOnLinux or as in close other background software running?
I've never seen an error like this with WinSteam in PlayOnLinux... so I'm curious what is causing it too.

Well, considering he didnt read the stickies and post the correct information, we cannot help him anyway. Im sure that after a couple of days (thats when he posted it), he probably managed to shut off his system (if they can get it to work, considering its Arch, and not for beginners at all).

I still dont see why people want Arch before they really understand Linux. Its WAY too hard for anyone but intermidiate users at the least to run effectively.

@horseman - Anytime you run playonlinux from a command line, it will ALWAYS output errors and stuff on the terminal. Its supposed to do that.

Me either, Arch Linux sounds like a cool distro, but I would spend way too many hours setting up what most distros already provide.

Ah, errors as in Terminal... ok making sense now.
Oh well...

Exactly. I have done enough troubleshooting linux on the clock (at work) and compiling and getting source and installing this that and the other and troubleshooting stuff at the terminal and blah blah blah. At home, I just want my damn system to work. haha
