[Wine] Rosetta Stone suddenly stopped working

NVIDIA proprietary drivers have an option to install 32-bit compatibility
OpenGL libraries if you use their official installer.
If you didn't use your distribution's means to install NVIDIA drivers (like
NVIDIA repository, "Restricted drivers" or Envy), try to download and
install the latest driver from nvidia.com, install it and see if it helps
(with and without 32-bit libraries).

I'd see into the issue if only there was a trial/demo of the application...
