Comment 83 for bug 191575

Hi,

Too bad the problem still occurs in the final version of Kubuntu Hardy Heron. At least I have a working workaround for the issue (thanks to suggestions in this bug report)....

I had the exact same kinds of segfaults on the 2 most recent Kubuntu Hardy Heron kernels and on the last 2 Hardy Heron versions of wine (versions 0.9.59 and 0.9.61). The 2 kernels I did the debugging on were 2.6.24-15-generic and 2.6.24-16-generic.

I had the same 'valgrind -v' debugging output as was mentioned here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine/+bug/191575/comments/11

Following workaround also worked for me: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine/+bug/191575/comments/32

I first removed the Hardy Heron repository version of wine (that was broken on my system) and replaced it with the wine version 0.9.55 that I downloaded from http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/ubuntu/gutsy/wine_0.9.55~winehq0~ubuntu~7.10-1_i386.deb using Firefox, NOT via apt-get or aptitude...

That solved my issue. wine and winecfg work correctly now....

Regards,

Mark
