OKAY! I found a work around. I specified XSERVER = VESA driver in the lts.conf for the HP T5125 thin clients instead of the VIA driver that is auto-detected, and when I run wine, it works great without crashing X. It didn't matter what resolution or color depth I set with the VIA driver, the X session would always crash and I'd be kicked back to a login screen. I also tried setting the X_VIDEO_RAM and that didn't help either. And believe it or not, I still had 1280x1024 resolution and 16 bit color with the VESA driver. I don't know why I couldn't get the VIA driver to work with wine, but at least I have a solution. BTW: Enabling SYSLOG_HOST helped me debug the thin clients a great deal. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
