I need to run a Windows program or two for work, so rather than powerup my laptop for 30 minutes of work per day, I thought I'd try to install the programs on my Debian tower using WINE.
I installed the program using apt-get and as a test ran "wine wordpad". No window appeared, and mouse and keyboard inputs stopped working. I had to ssh into the box from the very laptop I was trying to avoid using in order to kill the process. So I downloaded the latest release from the winehq.com repository and installed that. And running "winecfg" stopped both mouse and keyboard inputs, and I had to ssh into the box to kill the process. In both cases, I had to use kill -9 to actually stop them. Is anyone having any luck with WINE? I tried to trace the problem using winedbg, but that locked things up, too. Am I missing something obvious? Please reply to the list rather than directly to me.
