Mouse and keyboard problems

CrossOver 11.03, Installed Dragon Age through Steam. Installed Steam through CrossTie.

Game loads, was able to configure character and enter game, but mouse doesn't work and keyboard is spotty. Movement keys seem to work, but arrow keys to change view do not.

OS: Ubuntu 12.04

Any suggestions?
Should I try installing the game directly outside of Steam? Is it any better that way?

Hi,

I have a few questions:

  • When you say "installed through Steam" do you mean you used Steam to run the DVD's installer? Or did you install the Steam version of DA:O?

  • You used a crosstie for Steam. Did you use the DA:O crosstie as well? The DA:O crosstie pulls in a couple of other required libraries and changes a couple of registry settings. Maybe you're missing one of those?

  • What desktop manager are you using in Ubuntu 12.04? I'm not sure how crossover is working under Unity, but the other ones should work (KDE, gnome, xfce, etc.).

I have this game and I'm also on Ubuntu 12.04 (on xfce), so we should be able to work something out.
