When running the installer for starcraft, when moving the mouse over any of the options, it highlights that option, and plays a sound. When arts is set to sleep (to prevent blocking), and using the ALSA driver, everything works fine, when you move the mouse over the options, the sound immediately plays.. but when using the aRTS driver, the sound comes out about half a second after the mouse is moved over an option and the highlighting appears. This isnt anything major to me, but either way, wine shouldn't do that... unless it's something to do with aRTS, in which case, we could contact the devs there and have them look into it.... Either way, if anyone that knows how to work on the arts driver and has a copy of the starcraft cd laying around could take a look, please do, and if that's not possible, let me know what I can do to help...
Note that I have not tried playing the game with arts yet, as i'm still in the middle of finding and reporting apps that dont work.

I'm guessing this is because of the latency that arts gives you in exchange for network transparency. Also, arts is basically unmaintained.
