Hi, I've been trying to run multiple instances of wine 310199, installed from the ports collection, on my FreeBSD 2.2.8 box. (486@33Mhz, 16Mb, 2x1Gb SCSI disks) One instance of wine will run _fine_. However, the moment a second instance is started, the first instance exits - usually pretty cleanly, while the second instance continues to run. I've had some help from Ulrich Weiland (WINE) in debugging this, but he has reached in impasse (see quoted mail below). The first point he raised was that a semget call fails. The second point was that the kind of behaviour my machine was exhibiting was theoretically impossible! Has anyone been able to run multiple instances of wine? Would anyone like to try?
