maybe but, i dont think so because the game can run in certain areas
Then it's something else. You'll need to attach debugger to UT and get the back trace of all the threads. When UT freezes, in the another terminal run 'wine winedbg', then type "info process". You will get a list of processes like: Wine-dbg>info proc pid threads parent executable (all id:s are in hex) 00000008 1 00000000 'notepad.exe' 0000000c 5 0000000a 'services.exe' 0000000f 4 0000000c 'winedevice.exe' 00000017 1 00000008 'explorer.exe'
Type "attach 0x<pid>" where "<pid>" is the pid of the UT2004 process: Wine-dbg>attach 0x8
Then type 'bt all'. Please attach (as a text file, do not paste) complete terminal output of this session (starting from wine winedbg).
Maurais described that game modified his alfa config on the screen
It's called "gamma correction" or simply "gamma". And yes, it does affect whole X screen.
