[Wine] Steam games crash during gameplay

> I tried switching to low-quality sound a couple times. No improvement. I also tried OSS, Esound, etc. And the crashes happen no matter what the window decoration stuff is. Generally, I run it in a virtual desktop, but I've tried all the different settings in 'Graphics.' And the problems seem to be generally in online play. But running my own server will eventually crash too.

I have the exact same behaviour with another game ( X-session lock-up 
while music from other programs continue working ok, but no mouse and no 
keyboard, so any Ctrl-Alt-XX keystroke does nothing). My game can only 
be played online.

I asked before in the list and I was told it was an ATI-related problem. 
Somebody asked you to test with other games, so I thought that maybe you 
were interested in giving it a try, specially because it is free to 
download, register and play:
Tales of Pirates (http://top.igg.com/).

I found another walkaround to kill the game other than hard reset: login 
with a remote terminal ( ssh ) and kill the process, maybe you could try 
if it works for you, obviously you will have to set up the ssh server, 
which should not be very difficult. I can help you off-list if you are 
interested in trying.
