wine users - Aug 2008 - Fortress Forever, TFC and of course..Wine [Problems]

So, TFC works great under wine, no problems cept one, i can't connect to any
servers. The world renders fine, my sound is fine, everything is good cept
connection to server. I can browse the server list, see updated info from master
server, i just can't join any games. Latest Wine.

Fortress Forever, i cannot even ping the master server, nor can i enter the
game. I can browse menus and set everything up, but when i try to load the game,
as soon as the game world renders and i pick my team, the game crashes, usuaslly
with a C++ error, but i am never able to see the message box [more in next
paragraph] I put all the settings in FF to the lowest, and i can only seem to
use Direct X 9.0c Ive done everything in appDB, and none of that fixed my
problem. So does anyone have any ideas why it crashes? I am able to run glxgears
fine, and i am using the Ati restricted drivers.

Wine problem: well, wine windows go unresponsive..alot, and for some reason,
wine only uses the top left 800x600 section of my screen, if anything is outside
this section, it is garbled mess, and since you can't move windows around in
wine, i am basiclly screwed in that aspect. How do i fix this?

So no one has any answer?
