hi, i am runing latest wine in a FC9 x64 machine and when i run anytihng in wine computer just reboots...I already tested ram with memtest and its fine, no gpu or cpu high temps. Wonder if its some problem between wine and the nvidia driver under x64, or some hardware problem.

Just to be sure: aren't you trying to run wine as root ? You can check, whether the machine also reboots on an open source "nv" driver instead of the proprietary Nvidia one. If not, it's a driver issue. With regards, Pavel Troller
Even running as root wine cannot reboot a computer. Computer rebooting is a sign of a driver or X11 problem somewhere. glxgears really not a test. Wine is any feature defect in the X11 or opengl wine normally finds it. FC9 does have a lot of prototype patches in its kernel and it X11 server. So running wine on it is really russian rollete.
> Even running as root wine cannot reboot a computer. >Hi! Just FYI, it can, under certain circumstances. We had such a case here in the past. An application in wine was scanning the entire filesystem (through Z: drive) and it activated the watchdog device file occassionally, without further maintaining accesses to it, so the kernel rebooted the system because of the failed software watchdog. Running the app as user would prevent to access the watchdog file, so the system would stay stable. With regards, Pavel Troller
wine was runing as root, wonder how did that thappen :) but the problem is still the same, so i tested with some linux distros and computer always rebooted when using the gpu even with windows, now i change to a old ati and the problem stoped.... tks all... ;)
