Hi,

I have a problem with Crossover Office 4.1 Pro :

Adobe photoshop 7.0 does not work very well (it worked well with old releases of crossover) : when I exit the program, a wine zombie process remains, and I have to reboot to get rid of it. The real problem follows :

If a try to simulate a windows reboot, it locks the PC completely, ctrl-alt-bcksp does not work anymore, and the pc will not respond to SSH connexions... so a hard reset is the only option. 

After the real reboot, the "simulate windows reboot" is working again. So I guess that the zombies of wine processes are guilty ???

Also, photoshop 7 seems to have problems to display correctly with crossover 4.1 : the top of the window is invisible or the main toolbar is not showing up.

Other progs : quicktime, media player, itunes, internet explorer are working fine.

I'm not sure of this one :

I believe that itunes has been uninstalled by the installation of photoshop ! Is it possible ? I know, it's hard to believe, but after installing photoshop I noticed a 'hole' in my icons. And itunes was gone. It is displayed as not installed in the crossover setup, but if I look in the files on the disk it's still there in the fake_windows program files directory !!! So it WAS installed, but something went wrong with the installation of photoshop.

I'm gonna remove everything related to crossover and reinstall the whole damn thing (no photoshop this time), but for me, it smells like a bug...

The Wine zombie process thing is a kernel bug that has been fixed in more recent 2.6 kernels. The other photoshop flakyness could be related to that.

Thanks
