wine users - Jan 2003 - Logitech Wingman Formula detected but does not work

Hi everybody,
I'm trying to run Grand Prix Legends with Wine.
(codeweavers-wine-20020904-7.i386.rpm)
Now I can start the game, but when I want to do the steering-setup
within the game, the wheel does not work.
The log gives the following:

[frank@hal9000 gpl]$ wine --debugmsg +joystick c:\\sierra\\gpl\\gpl.exe

trace:joystick:LINUX22_GetDIDataFormat (0x4a64a720,0x403e67a8)

What means the line "BUILTIN_LoadModule loaded .so but dll joystick.drv
still not found" ?
Is this the reason why the (detected) wheel does not work?

Any tips?
Thanks a lot in andvance for any help,
frank

These messages only appear in WineX CVS, not codeweavers wine, so you must
have some conflicting Wine installations.

Not sure why it appears, but joysticks in WineX CVS seems to work anyway,
so it doesn't seem to mean anything.

I don't think so, but maybe it'd work better if you use the Linux 2.4
interface (in WineX the availability of this would show up as LINUXINPUT
instead of LINUX22 in the above traces), which is used if the
/dev/input/event* devices are available. Make sure the appropriate kernel
modules are loaded (like evdev). You might also want to make sure you
don't have conflicting Wine installations. And lastly, if you're using
WineX CVS, try updating it since a few more fixes to the joystick code may
have been done since your last update.
