    Any way to prevent the mouse from leaving a Wine window?

    I use Wine to play older PC games, and I play them in a window on my desktop (minimum resolution of my monitor is 800x600, and a lot of older games are 640x480). The problem is that I can't use "edge scroll" because instead of bounding against the edges of the window, the cursor leaves it and enters the KDE desktop space.

    So is there a way to prevent the cursor from leaving the window? I have a setting checked in Wine config that says something like "Allow DirectX apps to lock cursor to window", but it doesn't work as expected (assuming it's working at all).

    Any ideas?

    look in wine config under the video section.

      You mean "Graphics"? I've checked the box that says, "Allow DirectX apps to stop the mouse leaving their window", but it doesn't actually prevent the cursor from leaving the window.
