wine users - Oct 2005 - mouse cursor won't leave screen center

Hi,

I'm trying to play Frontier First Encounters' Windows port jjffe using
wine,
since that's the only version of the game that actually has a proper 
framerate under X (using the dos version under dosbox I get about 2fps during 
the intro sequence, while jjffe under wine looks perfect.)

However, the mouse stays more or less put in the center of the screen. When I 
move it around, it wobbles a bit in the direction of the movement, but when I 
stop moving it stays fixed again in the screen center. I can't play this
way.

Does anyone have a clue why this is and what I can do about it?

Thanks for any help,
Diederick

Usually that's a sign that the mouse cursor isn't *meant* to be moved,
and is actually only visible by accident.

You do not mention whether this happens in the game or only during the
intro sequence?

Do you have an URL where the game can be downloaded?
