Hi all the great people of POL :D

Im very new to Ubuntu/Linux, but loving it so much so far. Now the only thing keeping me from fully switching to Ubuntu is my favourite game, Black Ops.

I have installed it through POL, but when I try to run it from the main POL screen, nothing happens. And I tried installing several other applications as well, including Setam, but through POL, and still, if I click 'Run' nothing happens.

When I got into the Wine Program Files directory, I can run Steam from there, but when I click Play on COD BO SP or MP, it says Completing Installation 1%, and then gives an error: Incomplete Installation of Call of Duty: Black Ops - Multiplayer (2) :cry:

I'm currently running Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Edit: Almost forgot to add, this is the DVD Version of the game.

Open a Terminal Window at your xServer, then type:
playonlinux

now try to start a game, when nothing happens, please give us the output from the command playonlinux
