wine users - May 2009 - Zangbandtk under wine - Mouse and Saving issues

Hi, I'm afraid this is largely a reproduction of the post I had on the
ubuntu forums but I thought I might be able to get a bit more help with the wine
errors here. :)

I've been trying to play with the old binary I had from my windows
installation of zangbandtk (version 240r5.) It runs almost perfectly but
I've encountered two issues:

1) The Right click menus in inventories don't really work (the menu items
don't highlight and it manages to successfully block all mouse clicks for
the system, both inside the game and out which is rather awkward and unusual, I
have to press a button on the keyboard to close the menu and restore it.) This
seems unusual to me since I can't quite understand how it's managing to
break mouse clicks for the entire system rather than just the program
(presumable it's the menu takes the focus and is waiting for a mouse click
which never registers.) I don't receive any errors when this occurs though.

2) The game is unable to save. I suspect this is tied to the error message I
receive - "fixme:msvcrt:MSVCRT__sopen : pmode 0x01a4 ignored".

3) There's a third error but I don't think this one is particuarly
serious - "fixme:msgack_message msg 7f (WM_GETICON) not supported yet"

I'm running Ubuntu 9.04 and Wine 1.1.21. Is anyone able to help with these?
In particular would the MSVCRT error be fixed with a native version of the file
(I only have the windows CD currently rather than a full installation so I
don't know if anyone knows of a way to retrieve the file from it. I can find
a MSVCRT.DL_ file but I doubt plain renaming is a good idea..)

Also would anyone know the means for perhaps getting some more meaningful
information about the mouse quirk? Presumable some form of debugging tool for
making a log might suit this purpose but I'm afraid I'm not so familiar
with wine yet.

Did you install it under Wine? Or just run it from
windows?

Try 'wget kegel.com/wine/winetricks && sh winetricks vcrun6'

You can ignore output unless you've got a problem.

See above.

I just ran the binary under wine. There's no installation to speak of (no
registry entries etc that I'm aware of.)

Thanks, I shall give it a try later. :)
