heh...

I never claimed that the code I've submitted is a patch...:P

I submitted the code to show what I've found out - that if the
IDirectInputAImpl_GetDeviceStatus() function would return the DI_NOTATTACHED when
the joystick isn't present then the problem would be solved.

But unfortunately - what I've also found out is that in wine 0.9.32 the game won't
run even with the hack - I don't know why, but wine 0.9.32 doesn't allow the game
to switch to 640x480x8 screen mode. (this screen mode is used in the menu).
I haven't reported this bug because I think it doesn't make sense while the DI
bug isn't fixed (and I don't know if this bug isn't somehow specific to my
system - it could be verified if someone hacked wine the same way and checked
if the game behaves the same way).
