wine users - Oct 2010 - Internal error - invalid parameters recieved

Hello,

I've upgraded to maverick from lucid (a clean install). I've been
getting the same error for many applications running from wine, each in it's
own bottle. Garena starts with the error but I can't log in, Heroes 3 runs
without a glitch and suddenly crashes with the same error, Microsoft Office same
thing, just crashes out of the blue, I can't install ie7 or ie8....same
thing. Console output shows nothing wierd...only the error dialog box appears
and depending on the application it either crashes or it seems to keep working
and does nothing.

I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 RC1
Kernel 2.6.35-22-generic
Wine 1.3.3
Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2 GHz
2GB RAM

any help would be apreciated.

Probably this: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24193

Has Maverick been released for general use?

There was a thread on Garena problems, and it would be a good idea to visit the
Applications Database to see what, if anything, can be done to fix problems with
this program.

Are you using winetricks to install IE7?

This may be the source of the problem.  There have been reports (here and
elsewhere) with this kernel release that affect more than just Wine.  The
consensous is to wait on 2.6.36.  Since I don't run this kernel I cannot
confirm those reports.  This is just what I've read on several mailing
lists.

Again, it would be 'nice' to see a log file from when these programs
break.  Can you capture one and post it to a site like pastebin.com? 
(http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log has instructions on how to capture a log
file.)

Thank you.
