Hello All,


After upgrading from Ubuntu 12.04 to 14.04 (Kernel version 3.2.0-126 to 
3.13.0-119), I noticed that the only windows application (32 bit) I was 
using through cross-over office (Quicken) stopped working through wine.  
When I run the application, it pops up the initial window prompting for 
a file password but after I enter the password, it does not pop the main 
windows. I see the process seems to be running  as below

0 S kannan    7023  6334  0  80   0 - 958476 pipe_w 21:30 ? 00:00:00 
winewrapper.exe --wait-children --start -- 
C:/windows/profiles/crossover/Start Menu/Programs/Quicken/Quicken Deluxe 
98.lnk

Is there something that I need to do to enable this with the new version 
of wine? I seem to have two versions of wine as I see when I got to 
'Start Menu -> Wine->Uninstall wine software (namely wine 1.4 and wine 
2.21). Perhaps it should be run with 1.4 version.

Any ideas?

Thanks
