I've been able to run eve without any problems so far, but I've created my first account and I'm trying to run two clients at the same time using two different virtual desktops.
But I'm running into a problem. When I open the second virtual desktop and try to open eve, I receive this error:
Quote:err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x5afe97c (invalid) wait timed out in thread 000c, blocked by 0000, retrying (60 sec)
Has anybody else managed running multiple clients using different virtual desktops? Are there any known workarounds to this problem? I'm using elementary os and wine 1.6.

I suggest you try the following and see if something helps:
- run Eve directly via bin\ExeFile.exe instead of Eve.exe - run your Clients in different Wine prefixes/two separate Eve folders - upgrade to current Wine

https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=172086&find=unread has instructions on running two instances at once in different wine instances. But 1.6 works fine. But yes, only run one launcher. |

Sorry I can't help you with your reported Error but more give you an hint of how I do.
I launch Eve through a custom script that divides my screen resolution with the number of Eve clients I launch. But the following command is the core of the script
Quote:WINEDEBUG=-all WINEPREFIX=/path/including/prefix wine explorer /desktop=EVE0,1920x1200 "C:\ccp\eve\bin\exefile.exe"
Notice that I've installed Eve in an non-default root folder. I also only have Eve installed in that prefix. |

Upgrade to wine 1.7, and try running without a virtual desktop with the clients in windowed mode. I've been running 2 clients like this, and everything works client, and launcher. (Well okay the launcher is squirelly, but only rarely and in ways that windows users are reporting. Former forum cheerleader CCP, now just a hopeful small portion of the community. |

What I have done is using the same wine prefix but copying multiple eve folders for example the command in my shortcut is:
wine explorer /desktop=2,1920x1150 "C:\Program Files\CCP\EVE2\bin\ExeFile.exe"
notice the "EVE2".. i have EVE, EVE2, EVE3, etc.
The reason for this is that certain settings like who the last login was, where windows are, etc are saved in the eve folder. By having separate eve folders per account, I can make sure that the settings remain customized for the usage of that account. I am still using the same wine prefix so i don't have to maintain multiple wines.
Also the "Desktop=" determines what window it opens in. Shortcuts with different desktops will open in different windows, ones with the same desktop will end up opening on top of eachother in the same window, which is not desired.
I also have multiple shortcuts to the same eve folder with different resolutions, for example:
---When I run the first one, it takes up my whole screen minus the task bar.
wine explorer /desktop=2,1920x1150 "C:\Program Files\CCP\EVE2\bin\ExeFile.exe"
----and this one is less wide, so that if i'm running another "box" full screen under the box I am mainly playing in I can see the users in local of the full screen one:
wine explorer /desktop=2,1770x1150 "C:\Program Files\CCP\EVE2\bin\ExeFile.exe"
