What is a little confusing is your high load. Not only do wineserver and Heavy Weather eat up all of the CPU, there also are some 20 other apps competing for it. Either the first two are hogging the CPU so much that everything else has to wait, or wine spawned a lot of children; my guess is on the first option. What is the output of 'setserial -a /dev/ttyS0'? > And here is the output that I got from the launch of the app: > > wine heavy\ weather.exe > fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x7bbbf7f4,0x00000000), stub! > fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),1,0x7bbbf7f4,0x00000000), stub! > fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x7bbbf7f4,0x00000000), stub! > fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),1,0x7bbbf7f4,0x00000000), stub! > fixme:comm:SetupComm insize 1298 outsize 1298 unimplemented stub > fixme:comm:SetupComm insize 1298 outsize 1298 unimplemented stub > err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x685f8f58 "?" wait timed > out in thread 0059, blocked by 0009, retrying (60 sec) > err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x685f8f58 "?" wait timed > out in thread 000c, blocked by 0009, retrying (60 sec) > err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x685f8f58 "?" wait timed > out in thread 000c, blocked by 0009, retrying (60 sec) > err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x685f8f58 "?" wait timed > out in thread 000c, blocked by 0009, retrying (60 sec) Not surprising given the above top listing.
