wine users - May 2012 - Program loses focus

I am using Ubuntu 10.04, currently with Wine v.1.2.2. I have installed a program
called NoteTab Pro, which is listed in the Wine database as running just fine
for the most part. And it has ran fine for years under Wine 1.0 (which I was
running until recently doing a new install of Ubuntu 10.04, which uses 1.2.2).
There was a minor glitch or two but I got used to them. However, now, running
under the upgraded version, when I am using the program, for no reason at all
(it seems to be random) I can't find it on the panel or when i try to use
ALT+TAB. However, when I check the System Monitor it is still running. Someone
mentioned using the following command to gain access to it:


Code:

wmctrl -R NoteTab



This did get me back to the program but the program was still not listed on the
panel with the other programs nor could I switch back to it from another program
using ALT+TAB. (Strangely, this software does seem to run just fine for some
other people under the new Wine version but not for me.)

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Wine but to no avail. Does anyone
have any suggestions of how to "fix" this problem? OR, does anyone
know how I can download a copy of Wine 1.0 (seeing as it seemed to work just
fine before)?

Versions older than 1.4 are no longer supported here. Upgrade.

Wine 1.0 was obsolete by the time Ubuntu 10.04 came out; I don't think any
1.0 packages were ever built for it.

Yeah, I did upgrade to 1.4 and the system was much worse than it is now. It was
v-e-r-y slow and had other problems.

BTW, v.1.2.2 is what is available through Ubuntu.
