Hello,

I hope im not beating a dead horse here as this seems like it would be more
prevelant but i could not find the issue in bugzilla.

I have done multiple clean installs of the OS to prove it was not something I
was doing incorrectly at least from a setup stand point.  It seems like no
matter what I do Wine crashes on the initial run and regenerates a new
system.reg even though there is one in place.

Applications like World of Warcraft, Sam & Max ( telltale games ), HomeWorld,
Portal and just about any 3D app will not launch.  Additionally winecfg drives
tab has reported it "Failed to connect to the mount manager, the drive
configuration cannot be edited"

I have seen other tips saying rm -rf the .wine folders under home/user.  I have
even added the mountmgr back into the system.reg manually but the reuslts dont
change for the apps even when i can access the drive setup.

my clean install steps are.

1. install ubuntu 64 bit 9.04 use EXT4 filesystem.

2. Geforce gtx 285 does not recognize off of initial startup no gui.
    A. run sudo aptitude update & upgrade to get system fully patched.
    B. run sudo sh ./NVIDIA.185.***X86_64*****.run ( installed Nvidia drivers
from the Nvidia website).

3. Gnome starts full gui control.  log in and turn on the special effects to
EXTRA.  Setup compiz how i prefer with compiz settings manager.

4. Then I follow winehq install tips for updating software sources and key so
synaptic shows version 1.1.27 of wine instead of 1.0.1.

5. I install wine confirmed install of 1.1.27 and once finished reboot and
tried notepad and get error on first run of notepad which closes but then
notepad finishes coming up.  Checked winecfg cannot setup mounted disks and it
takes a long time to open as it creates a new system.reg again.

Noticed applications that fail to start hang around as zombies and never clear
unless killed.  I have installed this system multiple times at this point all
with the same result

Thanks
