wine users - Oct 2004 - Quake II - a modal problem?

I am running FC2 on a Dell 600SC, latest wine version.  FYI:Quake II 
will run on machines with only 4 MB video cards and no OpenGL.  It runs 
fine under Windoze.  Under Wine it runs the "launching demo" well but 
then I have no keyboard or mouse control.  I must force the power off to 
regain control.  On Windoze one would hit the escape key at this point 
and a menu screen appears with Game, Options, Video etc.
Any ideas as to the cause/solution?

Is there some reason that you want to run Quake 2 under Wine rather than 
using the native binaries readily available?

Presumably such problems are solved there (given that, afaik, the last 
time I ran Quake2 worked fine and used both OpenGL and SDL, iirc).
