wine users - Sep 2011 - Force Feedback / Vibration

Hello,

I bought a steering wheel for racing games some time ago (a SpeedLink Darkfire).
Works great in wine, but no vibration. Actually it works if I use fftest. Just
not in wine.
I use Ubuntu 11.04, wine 1.3.28 (which is the most recent development version
right now). The wheel is connected by USB. Wine also says something about it:

Code:

fixme:dinput:JoystickWImpl_SendForceFeedbackCommand No direct actuator control
in linux



I found some things on the net, but they were older. I already tried overriding
dinput.dll, didn't help me.
I have a Pentium 4 CPU (32bit), 4 GB's of RAM, an NVidia Graphics Card with
1 GB of Memory.
Is there any help for me or will I just have to play without FF? 
Thank you in advance.

Just not
Wine's support of force-feedback is incomplete and some-what buggy.

To get as close as possible to working, remove /dev/js* and /dev/input/js* files
to force Wine using evdev driver for joysticks. Also make sure that you have
read-write permissions on corresponding evdev device for your joystick (one of
/dev/input/event*).
