After upgrading to 24.04 I cannot run Google Picasa installed in my default wineprefix. It seems like a problem with loading the DLLs:

0024:err:module:import_dll Library coml2.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\windows\\system32\\ole32.dll") not found
0024:err:module:import_dll Library ole32.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\windows\\system32\\oleaut32.dll") not found
0024:err:module:import_dll Library oleaut32.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\windows\\system32\\urlmon.dll") not found
...

(and many others)

Is there anything I could try to fix this?

I just upgraded from 15.04 to 15.10 and during the boot process I now get an error saying that some modules failed to load. So I ran systemctl status -l systemd-modules-load.service and I got this:

Oct 24 12:22:23 ubuntu systemd-modules-load[292]: Inserted module 'option'
Oct 24 12:22:23 ubuntu systemd-modules-load[292]: could not find module by name='off'

Oct 24 12:22:23 ubuntu systemd[1]: systemd-modules-load.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

When I run cat /etc/modules I get

loop
lp
usbserial
option
nouveau
nouveau

I tried to comment out one of the nouveau modules but it didn't help.

I found a bug on Launchpad which gives a similar message but my problem doesn't seem to be caused by the rtc module (which is the culprit in the linked bug).

Anyone has an idea what I should try?

EDIT: added more info:

cat /lib/systemd/system/systemd-modules-load.service gives

[Unit]

Documentation=man:systemd-modules-load.service(8) man:modules-load.d(5)

cat /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf gives the same output as cat /etc/modules/ listed above.

I have Wine 1.4 installed but for some reason its Alt+Tab menu entry doesn't show the normal Wine icon. There is a generic 'document' icon with the text "Uninstall". What should I do to get the original icon and text?

After I installed Picasa 3.9, I tried to import some photos from a USB stick plugged in. However, it does not show up in Picasa (Ubuntu has no problem recognizing it). There is just a general Mass Storage Camera item in the Import From field. When I select it, the program hangs. Could it be caused by this bug? Do you know any workaround?
