See here: http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04.2/release/unpacked/release_not... --- quote --- The Linux kernel was updated from 3.2.0.63.75 [3] to 3.2.0.64.76 [4] ... * x86-64, modify_ldt: Ban 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels - LP: #1319885 --- quote --- Wine was deliberately broken to fix a potential security issue. "a few 16-bit apps" ... sure. A lot of 32-bit installers still carry 16-bit (legacy) parts. Same breakage happened with Fedora distro I use. There is a temp patch, making it a runtime option: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/commit/?id=fa81511b... and some work to fix it properly: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/4/376 It might take some time until distros backport this too. Until then you are stuck with booting older kernels. Regards *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 36664 *** -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
