How do I apply the patch?
I do not think it is such a good idea if you are new to Linux.
Suggest instead you vote for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine1.3/+bug/944048 So they include these patches into PPA version.
If you really want to give it a try I suggest you google around about building packages and patching. Also you better know what mkdir/cd/sudo/apt-get do. But short steps without explanations follow (also I am on Debian so there may be something specific to your version of Ubuntu)
Download archive with patches, then run in terminal / console
mkdir wine-src cd wine-src sudo apt-get build-dep wine1.3 apt-get source wine1.3 cd wine1.3-1.4 tar xvf /WHEREVER_YOU_PLACED_IT/rs_mic.tar.gz patch -p1 < rs_mic/0001-winmm-Support-DRVM_MAPPER_PREFERRED_GET-in-waveXxxMe.patch patch -p1 < rs_mic/0002-winmm-Make-input-and-output-devices-have-unique-name.patch patch -p1 < rs_mic/0003-winmm-Report-waveIn-devices-component-type-as-Microp.patch dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot sudo dpkg -i wine1.3_1.4-0ubuntu1~ppa1~*.deb
If any of this fails then it's bad luck for you. Also there better be more steps, notching a version up for one, but should do as it is for now.
