Hi James,<br><div class="gmail_quote"><br>Thanks for the info.<br><br>On my ubuntu, I run wine as an account (not root) of administer. The setup is OK.<br>But as an ordinary user, the system logout during the installation before I can react. The windows software will install some drivers, which requires reboot.
<br><br>Does WINE has any method to prevent this automatic logout behavior?<div><div></div><div class="Wj3C7c"><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Jan 21, 2008 11:15 PM, James McKenzie <<a href="mailto:jjmckenzie51@sprintpcs.com" target="_blank">
