Advice for LaserSquadNemesis

[Mongrol]

Hi folks, I`ve been trying with varied success to get LaserSquadNemesis
(www. .com) to work and I now seek some advice on how to get a bit more out
it. LSN has two modes of operation. DIRECTDRAW_2D and DD8_3D . It's
basically an isometric game in the style of the old Lasersquad and UFO/Xcom
so its not heavy on the polygons. It also uses SDL. My setup is a gentoo
box, Radeon9800Pro running 3.2.5 drivers. DIRECTDRAW_2D runs on Winex3.1
(but we don't wanna use that) but with the latest wine (1016) I get the
following output (sound is off);

err:wave:OSS_WaveOutInit /dev/mixer1: No such file or directory
err:wave:OSS_WaveInInit /dev/mixer1: No such file or directory

fixme:ddraw:DIB_DirectDrawSurface_BltFast Source color key blitting not
supported for bpp 24

LSN then errors with a "failed blit" box and exits.

Using DD8_3D (my preferred option);

(60 sec)

My config settings are pretty much defaults, Win98 set with Desktop ON (off
produces a hanging pause).

Does anyone have any advice on where to go from here?
