Ever since upgrading my 64-bit Ubuntu system to 12.04, Wine has been broken, yet it is inconsistent, as some programs work. For example, Mailwasher Pro still loads at startup, yet I cannot for the life of me get others like DVD Shrink to run, even when directly double-clicking the EXE file. With DVD Shrink 3.2 in particular, I can run the installer OK, but not the installed program. Also, I couldn't even get winecfg to load at first, and trying to run the offending apps via the terminal produced errors like: "Warning: could not find DOS drive for current working directory" (even when double-clicking the EXE), and: "Too many open files" with instructions to set the ulimit higher than 1024.(Continue reading)
