Old problem, new version. Keyboard Focus not shifting in Fullscreen

Kay, here's the issue.
Way back when I first started using Wine (methinks it was about a year
ago... probably not that long though) I managed to get You Don't Know
Jack working, and frankly, it was all I could've asked from Wine... But
ever since I've had nothing but problems with it.
But now the main problem I'm having is a keyboard focus deal. I run Wine
in the console, IE
# wine ~/.wine/c/Program\ Files/YDKJ2/ydkjv2.exe
(File name may vary... I'm not actually at the computer I'm running it on)
in Red Hat 9.0 and everything works peachy until the fullscreen loads up
and then nothing. No keyboard at all. I kill the process and realize
that the inputs have been flowing to the console behind it.
Now, my main problem is how to get it so that the game itself grabs the
keyboard inputs. I flipped through bugzilla and found a few bug reports
of the same thing, including http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=292
which seems to be the most worthwhile bug report of many that seem to be
the same problem.
Now, I've also played around on google a lot (you can too if you put the
words "wine" and "keyboard" and search and found a lot of seeming fixes
that just don't work, for instance changing DXGrab to "Y".
If you guys want my ~/.wine/config I'll grab it for you, but I figured
I'd throw this preliminary mail out and see if anybody knew offhand what
my problem was and if there actually is a fix for it at all, as this bug
report I found is actually from about 2 years ago, so I figured it may
be fixed by now as I haven't really seen anything recent similar.
I'm using the 20030911 rpm for Red Hat from Source Forge.
If you need anything more for information, I'm here at the ready.
