System reboot ??

I installed a program via Crossover on my Ububtu 9.1 system. The installation went fine, but in order to finish I had to reboot the system. I went to the Control tab and attempted to simulate a reboot but nothing happened. Any help? thx

Hi,

Possibly one of the installation processes has hung, and you
would need to manually kill that process...ie; kill -9 <pid>
(where <pid> is the process id)...what program do you speak of?

Cheers!

You shouldn't normally have to reboot your system. If an installer, itself, reports that a reboot is necessary and offers to do so, you should just click on the "reboot now" (or what have you) button that's offered, and Crossover will simulate the reboot. If a process is hung, or something like that, the first thing to do is go into Manage Bottles and quit the bottle that's being used. If this is unsuccessful, open up a task manager/Activity monitor and kill the wineservers and wineloaders that you find.
