Below is the x11drv part of my config, which works to play wine in gnome
with metacity (this *without* DGA, because DGA won't work in
battle.net).  If you can't get keyboard, I recommend trying the various
permutations of the Managed, Desktop, and DXGrab options.

AllocSystemColors = 100
; Use a private color map
PrivateColorMap = N
; Favor correctness over speed in some graphics operations
PerfectGraphics = N
; Color depth to use on multi-depth screens
ScreenDepth = 16
; Name of X11 display to use
;;Display = :0.0
;
; this setup works for battle.net but is windowed (so scrolling probs):
; Allow the window manager to manage created windows
Managed = Y
; Use a desktop window of 640x480 for Wine
;Desktop = 640x480
;
; Use XFree86 DGA extension if present
; (make sure /dev/mem is accessible by you !)
;UseDGA = Y
; Use XShm extension if present
UseXShm = Y
; Use XVidMode extension if present
UseXVidMode = Y
; Enable DirectX mouse grab
DXGrab = Y
; Create the desktop window with a double-buffered visual
; (useful to play OpenGL games)
;DesktopDoubleBuffered = Y
; Code page used for captions in managed mode
; 0 means default ANSI code page (CP_ACP == 0)
TextCP = 0
; Use this if you have more than one port for video on your setup
; (Wine uses for now the first 'input image' it finds).

; Run in synchronous mode (useful for debugging X11 problems)

 The game runs. I get the opening video and sound. The game seems to work
 fine as far as I can tell. No error messages that I see when playing or

there are two more drivers for sound output in wine, and you may already

Patrick,
   Not really sure of the exact cause of your problems. I'm getting the
best gaming right now out of WineX and by using the wineoss sound daemon
in the Wine config file. You do then need to configure Alsa to support
OSS. 

   Unless you've done patches I don't think and of the Wine versions out
there are very compatible with Alsa-1.0.0-rcX. I think an ebuild for
WineX was submitted that uses Alsa-1.0.0, as I'm using it under Gentoo,
but maybe it won't be accepted since WineX is WineX and not Wine.

   I don't have StarCraft around to try out. 

Good luck,
Mark

My roommate in college was messing with doing the same thing.  I do not 
know specifics, but I can tell you about what he did to get it to work.  
His setup was a dual boot, so Starcraft was already installed on his 
windows drive.  Whenever he started the program he never had sound and 
no keyboard.  To get around this, he wrote a script to launch another X 
server on a different tty, and have it just running twm.  How he did 
this I am not exactly sure and I have been trying to get the script from 
him for some time.  I will keep trying to get it from him, since I want 
to use it for launching games and doing the exact same thing.  I hope 
this helps any, I thought it was a real clever solution

hi ,
had the same problem and got it working by replacing the wineoss with the winearts driver 

[WinMM]
; Uncomment the Drivers line matching your sound setting.
 ;Drivers = wineoss.drv ; default for most common configurations
Drivers = winearts.drv ; for KDE
u gottastart artsd before u start wine though ..
hope it helps
