I need to close nicely (i.e. just like pressing the x button on the window) a wine application (in this case uTorrent) from a script. I tried something like this: kill -N `pgrep uTorrent.exe` but no matter which signal number I use, it appears that the process is terminated badly. When it is restarted, uTorrent checks the started torrents, just like it does when it crashes. The same happens if I

I just downloaded the latest version of wine from the site to install on my system. My system is an Athalon XP 2400+ running Fedora Core 3, fully updated. I downloaded the file wine-20050419-1fc3winehq.athlon.rpm and installed it, then installed winetools-2.1.1-jo.i386.rpm to go with it. I started winetools to do the configuration and completed each step of the base install one at a time until

Hello, The ssh client checks for privileged ports when a local forward is about to be set. This is done in readconf.c's function "add_local_forward": ??? if (newfwd->listen_port < IPPORT_RESERVED && original_real_uid != 0) ??? ??? fatal("Privileged ports can only be forwarded by root."); The constant IPPORT_RESERVED is system wide and fixed at make time.

First - Wine is great. I love it totally. To login into a company website I have to use IE6 - Firefox is not handling the Web Site due to some reglementations. IE6 runs fine and there are NO problems. Only after exit, the Wineserver keeps running and takes away a lot CPU Power. I can stop it manually (System Monitor -> Process. Right Click and I can stop it (and it relieves the Power from the

Hello, I'm running wine for 2 windows programs under ubuntu and it is working quite well.

It's telling me maybe my wineserver crashed. How do I restart it? Logging in and out as user, in and out as root, and rebooting did nothing.

Hi, Is it possible to have a single Wineserver which can manage wine processes belonging to different users. If not, please tell me the reason. I'm trying to reduce the memory occupied by wineserver in a multiuser system, for instance: a server shared by 100s of users. In this case, it is better to have a single wineserver which can manage wine processes of multiple users (1 process instead

I went through the Base Setup procedure as advised, and it seemed to work 'mostly OK', but I think there is a problem with my glibc as you advised - a

Hello, I need CAP_FOWNER=ep for the asterisk process, i set it with setcap on the file /usr/sbin/asterisk, it's there when i look on it with getcap, but after starting and loocking with getpcaps there's only cap_net_admin+ep set.
