You program/game have to ask for it. You can't get it directly.

Ah do i missunderstand something now ...

I tought this is a dialog where i can adjust the X-Server input methid such as normal ? or xinput2, since xinput2 seems to make problems on older games.

You can compile wine with out xinput2, ./configure *--without-xinput2*

But imo I can't stand to play without xinput2 enabled. Things are slow or
something. Hard to explain.

Do you mean the reaction on all of your input is delayed?

I'm not sure how to explain it. I just know if I disable xinput2 (which is
what's recommended for double cursor in Steam games) it's not right. I
can't remember specifics, since I wrote a piece of Code that add's a new
variable WINECURSORHIDE, if nil, it doesn't do anything (ie normal wine
behaviour), if 1 it always shows the X11 cursor and hides whatever cursor is
created by the game, if 2 it hides the cursor completely (for older games
that generate their own cursor for example Deus Ex or Diablo 1). So yea in
ME2 I always have a mouse cursor, but better then a flickering mouse and/or
the problem with disabling xinput2.

No, that is not configurable during runtime. The DInput's configuration dialog is for dinput action assignments only.

dardack, Don't highjack threads or your posts will be removed.
