[Wine] Black (transparent?) Screen - wine 1.3.34

[Foerthan]

Hi,

I'm having some issues with multiple games running under Wine, namely the GoG versions of Age of Wonder and Baldur's Gate. Both of these are listed on WineHQ as compatible, but I'm not having the same luck.

If Compiz is running when I start the game, I get a black screen, but the game itself is obviously working, as the game music is playing and I can hear menu buttons pressed when randomly moving/clicking the mouse around. When using metacity, instead of a black screen it's actually just completely transparent - I see a subsection of my normal desktop, but again, the music is playing and I can click menu buttons. Also, if I attempt to use Metacity's window swapper (Alt-tab), the small area where the box shows up will actually display the game for a small period of time.

Things I've tried:
-Reverting to the latest "stable" Wine release; no effect.
-Setting wine to run a virtual desktop; no effect.

Other information:
-Using Wine 1.3.34
-Running Mint 11 (Katya) 64-bit
-ATI HD4890 using proprietary drivers

Terminal output:
