Small bump...
Still stuck on splash screen. Only thing i was thinking about was that i'm running 64-bit Ubuntu while all guides are for 32-bit. Does anyone use 64-bit even???
I use 64-bit Ubuntu and after the kernel update i no longer get stuck at splash screen.

And you followed this guide to resolve splash screen issue? I followed it step by step, everything worked flawlessly but running eve is still problem. Really no idea what should i do more.
What i've done is:
1) Installed latest version of wine (currently version 1.1.36).
2) Installed winetricks from http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks
3) Did the following command in terminal after winetricks was installed: sh winetricks winxp vcrun2005sp1 corefonts gecko d3dx9
4) Installed eve
5) I then installed the kernel at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.32/ (there is new RC versions out now, but this is the one i'm using without any problems so far)
The .deb files i installed was:
linux-headers-2.6.32-020632_2.6.32-020632_all.deb
linux-headers-2.6.32-020632-generic_2.6.32-020632_amd64.deb
linux-image-2.6.32-020632-generic_2.6.32-020632_amd64.deb
I then use a launcher on my desktop with the command:
wine explorer /desktop=EVE,1680x1050 "C:\Program Files\CCP\EVE\eve.exe"

i followed all the steps in the guid but the last one, i cant seem to get grub to pop up during boot by pressing escape.
I did get a message saying that 'mountall' was dead or something. Then the OS booted up.
I am using linux mint 8, it is ubuntu based but that may be the issue. Anyone else used mint and done this?
Have you checked what kernel version your comp is running on after the boot up? If your allready running on the new one there is no need to enter grub.

thats just it, when i hit escape and see the 'grub loading' message during boot up, it doesnt load grub, just says that, then boots normally, is there a way to run grub from the desktop and then just reboot?
Just type "uname -r" without the "" in terminal and you'll see what kernel you are currently running. If the kernel you installed shows up, there is no need to enter grub.
