hi - 

i was wondering if this had been resolved? i'm currently getting almost
exactly the same problem that Russell Hanaghan was having with jack_fst
and wine - it has all compiled and installed okay (wine 20040505,
fst-1.6, jack_fst-1.2) on my ccrma fedora core 2 box, but when i call it
this is what i get:

> [mrmachine at localhost mrmachine]$ jack_fst /home/mrmachine/c/Program\ Files/vst/Crystal.dll
> Reserving memory: base=0xbff0b500, size=1000000, end=0xbffff740

> fst signal handler 11 (TEB=0xb6d75000)
> Killed

i can run it no worries as root (and what a joy it is too! but not really practical), but as normal user i get the above message every time :(

btw - i'm starting jack as normal user ...

any help on this one? over at ccrma lists, a couple of people have gotten it working on this version of wine, but not on fedora core 2 .. i'm not sure how many have tried ...
