Mouse trouble

[Daniel Bingham]

Hi,

I just got the latest CVS and when I tried to run starcraft my mouse
won't move.  I have dxgrab turned on so as not to have my mouse going
off the screen when I try to move.  I am not very knowledgeable about
wine or programming, so I thought I'd tell someone who was.  If I have
something set up wrong I can't find it and don't find any documentation
to address it either.  Any help would be much appreciated.  Please email
me directly because I get the digest and tend to ignore it.  Thanks.

Known bug in the current CVS. Turn dxgrab off. If it's on, mouse events
are lost. I'm working on it, but have not yet thought of a way to fix it;
I need to run a procedure (GrabPointer) in the context of the thread that
owns the window that gets the grab. My latest idea was to queue an APC to
the owner of the window, but QueueUserAPC requires a thread handle, while
GetWindowThreadProcessId only returns a thread ID.

Does anyone else on wine-devel have any other ideas?
