The him and you in the sentence above are the same person. 

Long night?

i'm just in a altered state of mind, i just watched the end of house and also listened a skrillex song

fml

[T6]

also i'm still drunk,  sorry

also i'm still drunk,  sorry

Just tell us with enough time, a few tequilas and we all will understand fine

[T6]

no, aguardiente, a bit less alcohol(29%) but almost a litter of it 

since i don't drink often(maybe 1 or 2 times per year), that was the problem but when you are with friends you rarely say no 

about the problem, since opengl doesn't work and the app supposedly should work directly i only see one solution, virtualbox running xp to install and run starcraft

also could be good to report the error to wine since this is a really old game with perfect support

[NIKK]

still nothing. And whats virtualbox? i checked synaptics and i have it, but i'm not sure how i run it. i can assume its something like java, that just runs something. but either way, how am to to what you just asked,

[T6]

virtualbox is a popular app that allows you to create a virtual pc contained inside your pclinux install

in this virtual pc you can install win xp, win 7, pclinux, between many other os

inside this virtual machine you will have partial access to the resources of the real pc like ram, cpu and cpu, the rest is emulated like sound card, video card, network card, hard disk and dvd drive

you can compare it to a console emulator but it will allow you to do alot more than just play console games

inside this virtual installation you can put a os and over it install starcraft

as you see this is a extra step that could be unnecessary if you are dualbooting with another windows os but many of us prefer it because it allows us to keep running linux and the virtual machine can be isolated from internet if you wish and won't have full access to your hard disk

I"m not dual booting, but now i have another question. How does it work, and how do i use it to install starcraft?

[NIKK]

new question ( i found virtualbox) , what do they mean by no bootable medium found. there not telling me that i have to actually go through the process of installing the os do they?

To install it you would have to boot it anyway!

If using an ISO you set VBox to use that ISO like a liveCD.

Yes, they are. You install Windows in the VirtualBox window, just as if you were installing it to a regular PC. Once you complete the install, Windows will boot and run in the VirtualBox window on your Linux desktop. You will literally be running two operating systems at the same time.
