Avoiding EVE crashes with CrossOver/Wine

I have been toying and searching a lot lately on the net and with EVE itself, and i think i found the solution for it. That means, someone else already has found a working solution and I just reinvented the wheel (story of my life) and I am just reposting it and explaining it here.
(update : There is even an official bugreport and solution in the comments here. It’s not where i picked it up, but this whole story seems to be there as well. Thanks for providing me with a link Dan !)
For the record, I want to state again that the CrossOver project, which is the commercial frontend of Wine, and Wine itself are 2 amazing projects, and all i can say is that the coders, planners, executives, CEO etc, have my sincere respect. Up to now, things have worked flawlessly and I encourage anyone out there to just spend that little stash of coin on CrossOver. It’s a one time donation if you don’t want the support year after year and the money goes straight into the project, which is well worth it, and you buy yourself a whole lot of -ease of use- and manageability for it, plus timely and polite support that actually knows how to fix your problems. Ask any CrossOver user and they will tell you the same.
