             Bug #: 32822
           Summary: Populous 3: moving mouse cursor to edge of screen
                    causes the game itself to move off-screen
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.5.22
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: dannydubyav2.0 at gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


When the game Populous: the Beginning is started, either part of or all of the
screen is black (sometimes showing other applications that were open before
playing against a black background) and you need to move the mouse cursor to
the top-left corner of the screen to completely center the game onto it, but
you may still be able to scroll back out of it. This can continue to happen in
both the level selector and the start of playing levels, and seems to happen
the most in the hardware-accelerated version of Populous. If it occurs when
playing a level, escaping to the in-game menu and then resuming gameplay will
definitely stop it, but only for the duration of that level.

Full game version can be downloaded here: http://popre.net/downloads.php?f=19

The hardware-accelerated version unfortunately has to be directly launched from
its Program Files path of Bullfrog/Populous/D3DPopTB.exe because the game's
menu launcher always incorrectly disables "Direct3D Hardware" as a choice.
