Some good news regarding the "hang on start" issue. According to WineHQ Bugzilla documenting the issue, it's a known bug. Please review WineHQ bugzilla for more details (bug 35041) and the impact on various software programs. They do mention X.org as a possible issue and it's interesting that this is a CPU identification startup workaround for multitasking across cores. The current workaround, until permanently fixed in either X.org, Wine or elsewhere, is to start SC with the following: taskset -c 0 wine /home/your_username/.wine/drive_c/Sierrachart/Sierrachart_64.exe The -c 0 above runs SC on 1 CPU. You can also use taskset -c 0,1,2,3 as an example to run on multiple cores. taskset -c 0,1,2,3 wine /home/your_username/.wine/drive_c/Sierrachart/Sierrachart_64.exe Spreads SC across the first 4 Cores. This works for my configuration 100% of the time. Some info on taskset: https://linux.die.net/man/1/taskset Summary: 1) CPU exceptions of Exit - Fixed with latest SC 2128 and above 2) Hang on start - workaround with the taskset method above SC on Linux/Wine is now working better with fewer Linux/Wine issues. Configuration: SierraChart Version 2130 64 bit wine 5.0 (Ubuntu 5.0.3ubuntul) Installed from software manager Mint Linux 20 Kernel 5.4.0-40 generic OpenGL AMD Ryzen 7 3800X AMD video card (Radeon HD 7730/8730) Dual Monitors Date Time Of Last Edit: 2020-07-04 14:05:57
