[SOLVED] StarCraft 2 crash after update

DELETE: Any mod can delete this post freely if needed. There was no real need for it in the end.

EDIT: I just solved it. The only thing I didn't test was to reset the wine configuration by removing the .wine folder. It works fine again. Sorry for the unnecesary post.

Hi

I just updated my system and I can no longer start StarCraft 2.
It worked perfectly before the update.

Here are my system specs:
> Graphic card: Nvidia 8500GT 512MB

> StarCraft 2 version: 1.4.1
> Wine version: 1.3.31
> Kernel version: 3.0.7-1
> Nvidia driver version: 285.05.09-1
> Distribution: ArchLinux x86

When I start the game, one of this three things happens:
> The computer reboots
> The computer enters a kernel panic with a black screen (the lights of the keyboard are blinking, that's why I think it is a kernel panic)
> The screen turns black and the computer doesn't respond.

My guess is that something provokes a kernel panic. Can't know why because I updated wine, kernel and nvidia at the same time (it's been a long time since I updated).

I'm also lost because redirecting the output of the command run in a terminal with:
# wine /path/to/game/StarCraft2.exe > output.txt
leaves the file empty.

Any ideas about how to find the error that make the game crash?
Also, any other person has the same problem?

cheers.
