Latest wine-3.1 w/ bf1942 opinion

I'm finding bf1942-1.4 w/ desertcombat.com mod to be more playable. 
However, I hope i'm not jumping the gun becuase I've yet to test playing
it in a multi-player game.

Graphic glitches and font problems appear to be fixed.  Crash/freezes
with going back to the main menu while playing a game also seems to be
resolved (however, there is a long pause and blank screen while swithing
from game to menu).

I'm also impressed with the improvement in frame rates.  Am I satisfied?
eh. I think everybody wants faster still. However, I am impressed and
find the game *playable* (I've only tested single player mode...and I
didn't bother turning off all my virtual desktops etc etc).

The only real problem I'm having is that the linux-joystick drivers and
the BF1942 game is detecting switches only on my joystick as being
constantly pressed.  They are switches and not buttons.  Seems that most
saitek joysticks have some switches employed into the joystick.
