If i could see the battle.net screens instead of just the buttons with no text, and get the software upgrade to work after i download it that would be good.

Has anyone ever achieved this running starcraft with wine.

Starcraft runs great except for the one thing I use it for: playing online : / When i click on the button that is supposed to bring you to the battle.net screen ( the one that looks all industrial like, the inside of a factory) all I see is the buttons, all the rest of the screen is black. Well ok, that would be fine but the buttons have no text on them. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH .
After guessing from memory when I should press TAB and when i should press enter, I managed to download the software update. BUT, when its trying to unpack an do its thing, it tells me the was a share violation with the file /program files/starcraft/starcraft.exe. I changed all the files in the starcraft directory to have -rwxrwxrwx (i'm no sure if thats even supposed to help but thats what i did : /. I don't know what else to do. Has anyone else had this problem and fixed it?

Wine isn't advanced enough yet :( I've gotten SC to work just fine, single player... but no B.net for me. I've read stories of people getting onto b.net, but they couldn't actually play the game. Oh well...
