--- Comment #23 from tiar tiar85@luukku.com 2013-07-21 13:28:51 CDT --- This same issue appeared also to Grand Prix Legends. I have had it since Wine 1.5.31. I have skipped several development releases, so I can not confirm when the issue appeared with GTL, but at least, on Wine 1.4.0, the issue was gone. I've been using GNOME 3 during all this time.
Your method worked for GTL, too.
