can you try again with 0.9.55?
another thing worth attempting might be running it as follows:
wine BlackScreen.exe 1 +game bf1942 +restart 1 +joinServer 203.14.173.130:14567 +isInternet 1 +reconnectPassword 2217
if successful you'll see the splash screen and it will begin connecting to that server.
(still runs fine for me, aside from bug 11499)
