Great job by ertrader in tracking down bug 35041 in WineHQ, by TopDog in finding out the issue was a lack of thread safety in client side caching of objects by X11, and by Alex P in showing how to verify libs using checksums and pointing to proton-ge!

If the hanging of SC under wine was a thread safety issue in X11 libs, X11 is where it must be fixed. I don't believe Wine should try to work around it.

Has anyone used ldd (ld -verbose may also help) to find out if proton-ge is linking against X11 libraries and if so which ones? That could be an easy way to verify if proton-ge is working around the lack of thread safety in X11 or if they are using their own libraries.

In post #240, ertrader talks about having to modify grub and DOS parameters. I would guess that is something to do with drivers for the Nvidia card. But it looks like a pretty serious issue to me. Any insights on what is going on?
