wine users - Mar 2009 - cannot access winecfg/Drive with .wine made with 1.1.18

I'm  using wine 1.1.18 on Ubuntu Intrepid 32 bit and cannot access the
"Drive" folder in
winecfg while using ".wine" folder created with this release. 
while creating it, the terminal shows the error:

err:process:__wine_kernel_init boot event wait timed out

and when accessing the Drive Tab it says:

err:winecfg:open_mountmgr failed to open mount manager err 2

after i close winecfg the processes "wineserver" and
"services.exe" remain active.

If I try to use an older folder , converted to 1.1.18 but created with wine
1.1.17 , it works without any of these problems.

I've tried removing every trace of pulseaudio from my computer, using
pasuspender, aoss, etc and nothing seems to change.

Did you run wine as root, or execute su or sudo?

John

none of them. I run it as non-privileged user.

Reinstall video drivers. Make sure you completely removed pulseaudio.

*check forum.winehq.org*

Uhmm, well, I think this machine is connected to the  internet :P

Anyway, the output of "apt-cache showpkg wine-gecko" is the following:

which is basically the latest update from the winehq repository.

And the updater shows nothing regarding wine nor wine-gecko.
