wine users - Jan 2011 - No keyboard input accepted for Heroes3

Hi,
I had Heroes 3 4.0 Complete running perfectly on Karmic with Wine 1.2.2. I then
tried to put Heroes onto another computer under Karmic. When it starts up there
is a 'Testing' screen that never appeared before and the game does not
allow any keyboard input at all even to cut to the menu rather than watching all
the intro. I've tried installing under the previous version of Wine (sorry I
can't remember what version it was exactly) and Wine 1.2.2. This is the
error message I get when I run the game in the terminal:

laptop:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Heroes of Might and Magic III Complete$

I thought it might be a graphics driver error, but the driver is up to date. Its
running on an Asus Eee PC 900. The graphics look fine and the sound works just
not the keyboard.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If I recall correctly, you have to watch that entire video first time you start
the game. It will let you interrupt intro second time around.
