Description Ramon Klass 2006-08-25 20:07:57 UTC

in the current state, wine has problems with nvidia drivers when initializing certain videomodes, which needs a little workaround. Also, many games need a certain fix for DirectInput's mouse handler. Without the fix, the mouse cursor will always stick to the center of the screen. I have added a VIDEO_CARDS=nvidia option and a USE=mousehack flag to the wine ebuild so users can easily surround both problems without having to compile the source by hand or write their own ebuilds
on a side note, the mousehack does absolutely nothing unless you manually activate it, so the use flag could be left out, always applying the patch, which is to be decided before checking this in

please get the issues integrated upstream and we'll just pull from there
