Executed your suggested commands. The end result is the message: Running /usr/bin/wineserver -w. This will hang until all wine processes in prefix=/home/james/.wine terminate
Went on to other things waiting for it to terminate, but there is no indication that the commands have been successfully implemented or that the wine processes have terminated.
Do I need to manually terminate wine or reboot to complete the process?
If the command finishes and yields control back to the console, you need not do anything.
Otherwise, make sure all visible Wine programs are closed; if that doesn't work, I guess you could manually kill the server with `wineserver -k`.
