I'm trying to run Anstoss2 (a five years old German soccer simulation - I'm only interested in the strategic part of the game) under Wine. I tried the Debian package of the 20021031 Release and a self-compiled package of a 20021116 CVS snapshot. The following messages occur during the start of the game:

The "DEVICE_Open" messages might be related to the copy protection (?).
At the beginning I see a small "Cannot open file" window [1] that seems to be non-fatal.
The screenshot at [2] shows the main problem I observe: Something with the left-right justification of elements doesn't work.
There are three checkbuttons and the one besides "Neues Spiel beginnen" is selected and that's the place where you can select it - but the background black circles that should indicate where you are able to click are 2cm left and a bit ahead of the correct location.
The smiling ball at the right bottom is the place to click when you are finished with this page - but it's outside the rest, the thing that is painted in the two light blue colors (e.g. the "ADY" at the left bottom) is the background picture of my window manager.
If there's any other information that might help simply ask.
TIA Adrian
