I recently switched to Ubuntu from Windows XP with only Eve Online being a Windows program I want to be able to run on my computer. I have read this thread: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1139274 and this thread: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1226117 to make Eve work in Ubuntu using Wine. I must say that with a dual monitor system Eve runs much better (doesn't minimize every time I do something on my second monitor) then in Windows XP, when it works. I have found two problems that might or might not be related. About 50% of the time I try to log on (after clicking my character's picture) it starts loading Eve as normal but eventually in the ?Entering the games as....? part the progress bar slows down to a crawl and eventually halts altogether and I find my entire system frozen. The only thing I can do at that point is press the reset button. The other thing is a sort of random crashing I'm experiencing, usually this happens either when entering or exiting warp. Sometimes it happens after three jumps when traveling large distances, and sometimes I can travel 20 jumps before the system crashes on me. The screen freezes up and I get a ?The program exefile.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close? message. I usually need to invoke ?xkill? to actually get the frozen Eve Online to go away, and I can try again to start the program. I have seen some threads with similar problems, but haven't seen a real solution yet. It doesn't help that I'm new to Ubuntu and have sometimes no clue what is said. I like Ubunut, I really do, but I really need Eve Online running trouble free so if anybody has any idea's, please reply. Thanx
