Problem with two separate instances in two virtual desktops

Post by recursor94 »

I've been able to run an online MMORPG--eve online http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... n&iId=2249--successfully under wine1.6.


It is common for players to create multiple accounts and run multiple instances of the game client simultaneously and I have recently created a new account. I'm attempting to open two separate instances of the game client in two separate virtual desktops, but when I do I receive this error:

Code: Select all

err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x5afe97c (invalid) wait timed out in thread 000c, blocked by 0000, retrying (60 sec)
These are the commands I'm running:

Code: Select all

wine explorer /desktop=main,1920x540 ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/CCP/EVE/eve.exe

Code: Select all

wine explorer /desktop=alt,1920x540 ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/CCP
Is there a way to accomplish what I'm trying to do, or a workaround for this error?

For the game I play two accounts simultaneously, I just installed it twice, to separate wineprefixes.
