Factorio won't generate a world (0.12.3)

I managed to get Factorio to run on my machine, but whenever I try to generate a new world, it does nothing after I hit "generate". It just stops. The game doesn't crash or anything. It just stops.
I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

Try 0.12.16 first, maybe it has been fixed with that version

Here's my log (/Application Data/Factorio/factorio-current.log):

Also try using the Linux version with that, not the Windows version in wine (or what are you doing there?)

Why are you using a windows version on Ubuntu? There is a linux version for 32 bit and 64 bit, which work smooth because I use them as well. Just unpack it and go into factorio/bin/.../ folder and double click to run factorio.

I'm using the Windows version on Wine because it is most convenient for me. It worked perfectly fine on another, older machine that I used.

I'm sorry, but I won't accept bug reports from 0.12.3 (early experimental phase), when we have 0.12.16 already.

Get the 0.12.16 and if it doesn't work, make a new report please.

tbh, I also wouldn't spend precious development time on problems with running the game in wine, since there's a native version available :)

Agreed. To my best knowledge, Factorio on Wine is completely untested, and I don't think we should spend our time supporting that configuration.
