[Wine] Impulse fails to start

[tylerbraun]

So I tried to run Impulse on my Ubuntu 11.04 laptop and it installed fine (or at least seemed to). When I tried to run it I got the working cursor for a bit then nothing. I ran it in terminal and got a error message about running the Windows version of Mono so I went online and did a search for the error message and found a file called mono-2.4.2.3-gtksharp-2.12.9-win32-3.exe and ran it. The error message went away, but Impulse still won't load so I ran winedbg Impulse.exe instead and got this:

I was also told just now that I should be running the command "mono Impulse.exe" instead of "wine Impulse.exe" but that didn't work either. I just got this:

I'm not experienced or trained enough to read either of those. Does anybody know what they mean and/or how to fix it?
