wine users - Jul 2008 - Grand Theft Auto San Andreas Saving

I can't save my game while playing Grand Theft Auto San Andreas. I'm
using Ubuntu 8.04 with Wine 1.1.0. When I try to save it says something about
checking my Save Game directory. I have Wine configured so My Documents is set
to Documents in my home folder and thats where my saves should be.

Bump.

Don't know anything about this game.

And *what* does it say? *Something* is not enough to understand the problem.

I just told you. It says something like this "Check your Save Game
directory".  The saves are suppose to go in the "My Documents"
folder which I have setup in the Wine Configurations so the saves go to the
"Documents" folder in my Home folder. But my saves won't go there
or anywhere.

What your program says is not enough information; what Wine says is what's
important. Post console output.

That worked. Heres what I get up to the point of saving:
