normal dump of output of spore crash

I have not been successful getting Spore to run on my laptop.  I have tried
many different tips and tricks, including starting from a clean wine directory,
installing DirectX9, changing the OffScreenRenderingMode, removing PulseAudio,
and installing the latest Spore patch. I have not tried compiling from GIT. 
Here are the specs:
Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid
Wine 1.1.8
Kernel 2.6.27-7-generic #1 SMP
clean wine directory
Spore 1.0
No EA Download Manager
vm.mmap_min_addr = 0

command line:

mike@fliptop:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Electronic Arts/SPORE$ wine
Sporebin/SporeApp.exe -safe

Attached is the console output without a debug trace, showing unable to load
winedos.dll followed by a segfault.  I have set vm.mmap_min_addr = 0, but still
get the crash.  Any ideas?

NVidia GeForce 6150:

00:05.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation C51 [Geforce 6150 Go]
(rev a2)

Drive version 177.80:

NVRM: loading NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module  177.80  Wed Oct  1 14:43:46 PDT
2008

IIRC, I had this working in 1.1.6 or 1.1.7, but haven't tried to install the
older versions.

Are there no other ways to try to debug the problem than regression testing? 
Last night I was working on getting 1.1.7 compiled (it's an x86_64
installation, which apparently causes other compilation issues) to see if it
worked in 1.1.7.  I had planned to also try with 1.1.6.

I'll try the older versions from packages
(http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/index.html) instead of compilation to
see if it works with the older version sometime over the weekend.

We need to know which patch broke it. While it could be fixed without that
info, it is easier with it.

Abandoned. If you still have a problem in current (1.1.22 or newer) wine and
can provide the requested information, feel free to reopen.
