Problems with wii games on linux on latest revisions

Wii games just aren't working for me at all on the latest revisions.
I have two versions of linux I've tried it on, both have loaded gamecube games just fine, but have crashed when loading wii games.
The first system runs Arch linux, and the games in question - Skyward sword, and brawl to name two - work on the release version (3) but fail to load on 3.0-1412 when the problem is happening. The problem is that I can get one wii game to load one time, but every subsequent load of a wii game fails, unless the same one is started again. The problem seems to be with the file SYSCONF found under .dolphin-emu/Wii/shared2/sys. When I delete this file and launch dolphin again I can get one game to launch again, after that launch the same problem occurs. This problem wasn't happening quite like I described earlier today, but wii games would fail to load eventually. At one point I thought it might be with closing the emulator while "Clearing code cache" was still doing something. Mostly I am very confused.
The second system runs Ubuntu 12.04. On this system wii games would not launch at all, while gamecube games ran just fine. I only tested the latest git pull on this system - 1412.

It seems like there are some problems with wii games on the latest revisions for linux, but I can't seem to narrow it down. I tried to run a dubug build on the arch system, but the crash would not occur. Huh

If anyone else could test out wii games on linux on the latest revisions that would be great, I really can't tell if this is my fault or dolphin's.

As for system information I have an i5 3570k 560ti with 319.23 on arch and 304 on ubuntu.
