wine 0.9.22 + spring 0.73b1
Looks like wine doesn't like the new lobby. Whenever I minimize the client, it just disappears; it's there in the process list, but I know of no way to bring it back to the desktop, and I need to minimize it because it takes a lot of cpu. Any ideas?
Yeah, wine doesn't like the new lobby. Some things that I do to make it manageable:
a) set spring to run in a window (have to get used to scrolling with arrow keys, though)
b) open a private message window, so the whole player list isn't updated - this causes those periodic slowdowns
c) move it down the screen when the game is loading so only the title bar is visible
d) when the game is passworded, the top window sometimes completely covers the passwod dialog; enter the password anyway :)

I tried a few ways to run it, the only way that really worked for me (apart from forcing a desktop), was to tell winecfg to NOT let my window manager manage the windows for tasclient.exe and spring.exe. TASClient and Spring are always on top, but at least TASClient's popups will pop up not under and spring will be on top when a game starts instead of the lobby.
