Well, I just experienced that under exactly the same conditions (expect for the
controller being connected) any wine variant I'm using expect for the
CiderEngines (e.g. Wineskin/macports) and any wine version crashes giving
different error messages (look here:
http://portingteam.com/topic/9416-wineskin-crashes-when-gaming-controller-connected/).
As the device (actually not being HID compliant) needs to be added to the OS
somehow this is done through the driver (obviously). This driver seems to
provide the device in a buggy way somehow, there is the chance that an
application that tries to access it "get's confused" or, like in this case
crashes.
Older versions of wine, which do not offer controller support within OS X are
not affected. Up to know wine also is the only "application" having trouble.
the driver works fine in any OS X native or cider ported game, as well as with
any remapping solution I've tried.
