Problems after upgrade/change of wine version

After installing WineX (I already had debian's Wine installed), things (such as sound and graphics) mis-behaved. I found that moving wine's registry files (/.wine/system.reg and /.wine/user.reg) out of the way and letting the new version re-create them fixed the problems, although I needed to re-initialise any apps.
