wine users - Jun 2010 - Can't start Wine after suspend on Laptop

Currently running Wine 1.2-rc2 on Ubuntu 10.04 x64 on a Lenovo ThinkPad x61.
After doing a suspend, I can't run Wine. The app I normally run with Wine is
Lotus Notes. But I've tried something as simple as going in to the wine
config. I tried doing a wineserver -k but that doesn't help either. Only
thing I found to work is a full reboot.

This has actually been happening since Ubuntu 9.10 x64 around January 2010 time
frame and I've been running each update of Wine.

Any ideas?

Is wine the only app that doesn't work after suspend?  On other lists
I've seen
many complaints about various other things that act the same way after suspend.
I can't be certain, but I believe the kernel is involved in the bug.

After waking up, does ps show anything running that may be related to wine, e.g
some wine process that isn't responding.  If yes, try killing that process
and
then try running wine again.

Any messages that show on the command line when you start wine that way?

Seems to be just Wine. Everything else appears to be running fine and responds
to application restarts. I've even tried exiting from all Wine apps before
doing a suspend and then running a wineserver -k on resume before running any
apps. But that doesn't appear to help. When wineserver -k hadn't helped,
I tried looking for wine processes but didn't see any running. Perhaps
I'm missing one -- what should I be looking for?

First: Please bottom post.  Your replies are sent to a mailing list.

Second:  After you suspend your laptop and bring it back to life, open a
terminal session and type in:

[code]

ps -ef | grep wine

[/code]

Post the results, including the command, back here.  Based upon what you have
written, it appears that the Wine processes are not surviving a suspend.

I guess wait was right about the kernel having an issue. Ubuntu 10.04 just had
an update to 2.6.32-22 and I've been suspending the last 3 days on it and
Wine's been working perfectly. Thanks!

Note sure what you mean by testing kernels. I've not been running any beta
or rc kernels. Only the releases that have been push out by Ubuntu. And as I
said originally, this started actually happening back in Ubuntu 9.10. Anyway,
I'm glad whatever they fixed in the current kernel update finally resolved
it and keeping my fingers crossed that they don't break it again. :)
