Hello,

I can only reproduce some of the issues when I slow the app down under a
managed debugger (changes timing of execution paths).

One of problems is actually within the software itself.

Whoever wrote this .NET app doesn't know how to cleanly separate UI and
threading.
UI controls are not generally thread safe in .NET (suprise!).
That means one should not access controls from a threads other than the one
where it lives.
That app tries exactly that, by accessing controls across threads (looks like
some splash UI/thread vs. main UI/thread) issue.

If the app works in Windows it doesn't necessarily mean there is no bug.
It might be hidden due to different execution timing.

You could try to update to newer Wine + newer Razor client and check if the
overall situation improves...

Regards
