Hi all, I'm quite new to Wine, so sorry if this question was discussed before. I installed Wine to have Lotus Notes running on my Linux-Box (SuSE 7.2). I use to start it via a desktop shortcut. After closing Notes I still find a wine process running. If I start it from the command line, I also have to kill the process after Notes is finished (CRTL-C). Is this a bug or a feature? Any workarounds? Cheers Axel -- __________________________________________________________ News suchen, lesen, schreiben mit http://newsgroups.web.de

Personally I have a script, killwine, in my path for tidying such things up; it kills wine, winedebug and wineserver and then deletes the socket. Very heavy-handed but I get to use it every couple of days. (Actually wine does create a zombie; the wineserver. I found that part of the code quite fascinating coming from a DOS background. However the wineserver should normally terminate itself once all the wine processes disappear) Bill
