This worked fine with rtorrent and other software but doesn't seem to be taking affect for wine? Did you actually confirm that the ulimit change worked? by default for users it will remain limited to 1024 unless you edited the limits to allow a user to increase it. And I wouldn't necessary assume that this actually changed anything to allow other software to work either. There could be other reasons. Before this is labeled as a bug in wine, you need to either a) Confirm that after running 'ulimit -n <newlimit>' for the same user that you are starting wine with has actually worked or b) Increase limits correctly for your user Run the following just before starting wine: # ulimit -Hn P.S.
