Bug #: 33828
           Summary: WinRAR can freeze the whole system
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.6-rc2
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

Screenshot from WinRAR an the license window

After a start from the Shareware version of WinRAR, there opened a license
window after two seconds (see attached Screenshot). If i Rightclick on a file
and then the license window opened during the context menue of the file is
open, then the full screen freeze. I can only shutdown the system then. That is
very dangerous if there are unsaved data.
I have tried it many times, so it is reproducible.

Program: WinRAR 4.20 (32-bit)
URL to program: http://www.rarlab.com/rar/wrar420.exe
OS: openSuse 12.3 KDE
Screenshot attached.

Wine can not freeze your system.

This is surely a bug of your distro.

Wine is a userspace application, this is a kernel bug. File a bug with your
distribution.

This is a known issue. To avoid this issue you can always switch back to
console mode (CTRL + ALT + F1 for example) and do "wineserver -k", or leave a
xterm opened in another workspace and use the switch workspace key (sometimes
CTRL + ALT + right/left arrow) and use wineserver -k in xterm.
