It doesn't look like the normal X cursor. S3 changes the cursor the same way 
in Wine as it does on Windows, but I think, appart of it's look that it's the 
normal X cursor / the normal Windows GDI cursor.

I could send you a Screenshot, but strangely the cursor isn't visible on the 
screen shot. I played this game on Windows, and I didn't notice any 
difference in how the cursor looks.

The log is attached.

A demo is available at http://www.siedler3.de/gindex.htm (Direct Link to 
English Version: 
ftp://ftp.bluebyte.com/demos/eng/settlers3/s3multidemoeng.exe)
I don't know if this Demo works with Wine. The original S3 does a lot of 
checks on system dlls and such, which causes the game to refuse to run on 
Windows XP and Wine. Bluebyte has published a modified s3.exe which makes the 
game start on Windows 2K, Windows XP and (as a side effect) with Wine. I 
don't know how the demo behaves.

S3 has two other issues: Drawing is slow with wine versions later than 
20040914, and S3 requests it's Window with the WS_CAPTION and the ddraw 
DDSCL_FULLSCREEN flag set. That causes Wine to reserve space for a caption 
around the window. I have a patch which filters the WS_CAPTION flag in 
Main_DirectDraw_SetCooperativeLevel. I didn't figure out how Windows handles 
this, I just know that doing so is not 100% correct.
