	The AppDB looks a little dated. Overwriting wine's dinput.dll.so is not recommended. Restore the original dinput.dll.so to /usr/lib/wine or re-install wine. The usual way to apply patches is through source code and re-compiling.


	There is a setting for MouseWarpOverride in http://wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys that you could try setting to force (and/or set mouse to not leave window in winecfg--graphics tab).


	This problem may have no easy fix. Check out bug 6971.
