The machine is a 486@33Mhz, 16Mb ram, 2x1Gb scsi drives, and the X server is a nearby macintosh running MacX 2.0. When wine is first started up, it runs fine. I've run the terminal emulator that I _need_ and mirc 5.5.1 with it. But the _second_ instance of wine crashes or somehow breaks the first instance.... I thought it might be an issue with DDE support and my particular application, but trying to run an instance of the terminal emulator (wingrape), and an instance of mirc has the same effect. The first instance of wine stops, and the second instance runs ok. Running 'top,' I noticed that the first wine instance creates two processes, but that after the second instance is started there are only three processes. I don't know enough about the internal workings of wine to speculate about this, but it seems odd... I'm talking to a gentleman on the wine newsgroup about this issue as well, and he is looking at the debug output from wine. Has anyone run multiple instances of wine under 2.2.8? Any ideas? anyone? (ps - I would love to get this working, because then I can start deleting windows from our old PCs and turning them into X terminals, with the 'Mission critical' (ack!) terminal emulation program running in wine under FreeBSD!)
