regret

I apologize in advance if this is a really stupid question that has been answered before, but a lengthy search of the terminal error and several different keyword configurations in google netted me mostly nothing. I see the error frequently but people are always talking about different problems, and not this error in particular. Anyway, that being said...
I installed Wine and WoW flawlessly. I followed all the steps in the How-To and had zero problems setting everything up, which was really very nice and the game runs beautifully. I get anywhere from 70-150 FPS which is miles ahead of what I was seeing in Windows Vista (I spontaneously installed Ubuntu a few days ago). There's no graphics problems, my keyboard functions perfectly, and as far as mouse movement goes it's flawless as well.
But now we get to the problem: frequently my mouse button clicks won't register in-game. The mouse cursor will still be flying around the screen but neither button will register. It happens for a very brief period of time. I'd say 2-5 seconds at most, but I PvP a lot so this is very noticeable. If you play WoW and hold the right-mouse button to strafe you will understand what an issue this is.
In my searches I discovered that running from terminal will show me errors, so I did that and found that every time I had a mouse button issue I'd also receive this error in the terminal:
fixme:system:SystemParametersInfoW Unimplemented action: 113 (SPI_SETMOUSESPEED)
fixme:system:SystemParametersInfoW Unimplemented action: 113 (SPI_SETMOUSESPEED)

fixme:system:SystemParametersInfoW Unimplemented action: 113 (SPI_SETMOUSESPEED)
So is there a simple fix for this I'm somehow missing?
Using a logitech g5 laser mouse plugged directly into my motherboard, in Ubuntu 7.10, under Wine 0.9.51, having tried both Windows 98 and XP mode. I can include more info if needed but this seems to be more of a software/system issue than anything on the hardware end.
I would appreciate any help that can be given. This is the only problem I've had with Ubuntu but it's a pretty major one... I have no desire to boot back into Windows.
