Hi, some news about SolidWorks : I tried again solidworks 2005 with wine 0.9.16 /ubuntu, and noticed a regression : - installer fails ( many errors, but i need to investigate it furthermore ) - an already installed version ( made with 0.9.11 ) crashes just at the beginning, before displaying anything, surely in ntdll : denis@bureau:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/SolidWorks$ wine sldworks.exe wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x102c08bc at address 0x7bebb68f (thread 0009), starting debugger... WineDbg starting on pid 0x8 Unhandled exception: page fault on read access to 0x102c08bc in 32-bit code (0x7bebb68f).
