Question: How to kill a Windows application that runs with wine?
I have installed new stable version of wine for Debian. Then the Windows application starts OK but hangs for some reason (its the application logic fault). However I can't see any way to close the application window or to kill the application. I tried as in documentation:
# wineserver -k
bash: wineserver: command not found
I also checked:
# ls -l /usr/bin/wineserver
ls: cannot access /usr/bin/wineserver: No such file or directory
#which wineserver
#
However, the process is running:
ps -A | grep wine
2232 ? 00:00:04 wineserver
2250 ? 00:00:00 winedevice.exe
This time I did:
# kill -9 2232
But it left messed remains of the application window graphics and I think this is not the way to go: I'd like wine to kill one of its applications and not kill the whole wineserver.
So, how to do it?
