With wine you could issue wineboot.
I'm stuck with "pending file operations" that require a reboot on a program in Cedega, any clue how I might resolve that?

Killing cedega and restarting it doesnt solve the prob? Not sure I completely understand what you're trying to do...

Try reinstalling it. Did you try killing Cedega? That should do it...

well, I do ps -ef|grep wine & ps -ef|grep cedega and it shows nothing, but when I try to install the program it says "a previous program has pending work that requires a reboot." I know there's a registry fix, but there doesn't seem to be a regedit function in cedega that I see. In Wine I could do a " wine regedit". Wonder if I can just drop in regedit.exe from a 98 installation.

Anyway, what I'm trying to do is install Microsoft Money 2004, but it says it requires IE6, which I really don't want to install, but whatever it takes to keep the wife happy & Linux on my puter. ie6setup is generating the error.

Thanks.

If you want to install MS Money 2004 and IE I suggest useing Crossover Office instead of wine or winex. There's some builds of wine that you can get IE installed on if you dont want to pay for Crossover office, but I'll leave that searching to you. Good luck with installing IE with winex (cedega).

They have an evaluation version of Crossover office if you want to try it out and see if it solves your problem. The retail is pretty reasonable in price imo. http://www.codeweavers.com/site/products/cxoffice/

Point2play has a stop running games option in tools, but I don't know what command line action it invokes (if any).

As said though, crossover office is the better option. I use it to keep MY wife happy with the couple of apps she needs

crossover has good tools too, like cxreset (or cxreboot)

Thanks, I installed crossover office, looks pretty cool, but it doesn't support Microsoft Money and I can't get it to install
Wife wins yet again..

I also put win4lin on the wifes machine for those hard to run apps. It's a little more expensive but will run all non directX win98 apps... You need a copy of win95/98/SE/ME tho... Have a browse on the Netraverse web site...
