I'm actually a Fedora user but I had the exact same problem (wine 0.9.58) and (ies4linux 2.99.0.1). I'm not sure exactly why but the problem appears to be how the startup script was wrote. Attached is the new script which solves the CPU problem and properly closes wineserver on exit.
To fix this I did the following: 1) cd $HOME/.ies4linux/bin 2) cp -av ie6 ie6.orig 3) Replaced the content of the ie6 file with: #!/usr/bin/env bash # IEs 4 Linux script to run ie6 - http://tatanka.com.br/ies4linux cd export WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.ies4linux/ie6" wine "$HOME/.ies4linux/ie6/drive_c/Program Files/Internet Explorer/IEXPLORE.EXE" "$@" >/dev/null 2>&1 & ** Attachment added: "New startup script" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14969462/ie6 -- [Hardy] Wine 100% cpu usage https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/205895 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
