running wine without MIT-SHM

Post by mike start »

Hi,
I'm writing a linux application that uses LoadLibraryA to load a windows
dll, which works fine on a local Xserver but I was hoping to use it
remotely as well. When I call the same function running on a remote
machine I get an X error caused by XShmAttach - is there a way to run or
compile wine so it doesn't need to use the MIT-SHM extension to X? I
would be very grateful for any advice, has anyone else experienced
similar issues using wine on a remote machine?

Thanks

Mike

What does that dll do? Remember that lots of Wine parts will want to crate Window which only works with valid X session.
