-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 A review of my HTML documentation didn't turn up any instance of the word "wineserver" :-( Where can I find some info about wineserver can see how to try to start it persistently? Incidentally, while I'm waiting for SOL.EXE to actually start, my CPU is sitting at 0%, so I don't know what wine is doing. Oh, and I have 384MB of RAM, so that's not the problem (not that anyone has suggested that it is). Doc On 22 Nov 2001 at 21:58, Uwe Bonnes wrote: > D. R.
