Bug #: 28900
           Summary: Jedi Academy Multiplayer Mouse regression in 1.3.x
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.31
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org
        ReportedBy: newfie.bugreporting@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified
Tested on two completely different machines with different Linux distros
(Ubuntu 11.04 and Fedora 15 x64).
There have been some mouse issues which prevent JKA (only testing multiplayer)
from being playable. Starting at around 1.3.14 the mouse has been completely
broken- the cursor randomly freezes and darts around the screen every few
seconds. This issue has largely been fixed, but there are still lingering
issues in 1.3.31.
Compared to the last time I tried WINE beta (1.3.22?) this has improved lots
but is still not playable. Instead of the mouse freezing entirely, it just
feels "lagged" and sort of chops around the screen every other second. The
amount of mouse movement and precision in JA's multiplayer makes playing under
these conditions impossible. The problem is most noticeable on menus, where the
mouse *does* still freeze and slow down dramatically. Additionally, the mouse
movement seems to get worse and worse the longer the game is played.
Nutshell..
Expected experience: The mouse should be perfectly smooth like on Windows.
Actual experience: The mouse stutters, lags, and locks up for brief periods
making it impossible to play the game.
I appreciate any sort of feedback or comments on this. There are a growing
number of Linux users in the JKA community who would love to see this fixed
before 1.4 goes stable Just to clarify, this isn't a "fix me now!" request.
Keep up the great work.
