[Wine] Wine on Fedora Core 4: Street Atlas 8 & wineconsole issues

I just did a fresh installation of Fedora Core 4, using my home
directories from FC3, including my .wine.

In the FC3 environment, I had used winetools to install. I did not
want to do a fresh installation of wine, just use an RPM that would
work. Alas, I had to fall back to 20041201.

SA 8:

  I installed and uninstalled wine-20050524-1fc3winehq.athlon.rpm,
  wine-20050310-1fc3winehq.athlon.rpm and
  wine-20041201-1fc3winehq.athlon.rpm. Not until the last did I get
  SA8 to run.

wineconsole:

  I ran a mess-dos console app, real-forth, using wineconsole and
  xterm on FC3 with no problem. Alas, on FC4, the cursor does not show
  correctly on xterm. It shows fine on gnometerm, but gnometerm does
  not respect the --geometry option, and I have not figured out how to
  get the geometry I want. (default is 80x24; wineconsole seems to
  want 80x25.
