[Bug 43010] New: Wine does not pass scancodes properly
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43010 Bug ID: 43010 Summary: Wine does not pass scancodes properly Product: Wine Version: 2.7 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: hid Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: ilmaisin(a)openmailbox.org Distribution: --- Wine does not seem to pass the scancodes properly to the Win32 apps. - On Ubuntu 16.04's Unity desktop, Win32 apps see the situation like the keyboard was physically rewired to the layout that is currently active. - On Gnome 3 other hand, it looks like the keyboard was physically rewired to the uppermost option in the Gnome's keyboard layout configuration (!). In all cases, the apps that use resulting characters instaed of scancodes work well, receiving those letters that they are supposed to. Also, xev receives the proper scancodes. Please modify Wine so that it will pass the actual, real, physical scancodes to the apps requiring them. This is absolutely essential for gaming with non-US and/or non-QWERTY keyboard layouts. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

Apparently Wine translates the mapped characters to scancodes in a some weird method that involves layouts hard-coded to the Wine source code and guessing the keyboard layout. It's not really a very robust way to do that. At least on PC/Linux platform it IMO would be better to just pass the actual scancodes as they are readily available. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43010 --- Comment #2 from Iiro Laiho <ilmaisin(a)openmailbox.org> --- Oops, I was confusing scancodes and keycodes. Scancodes are converted to keycodes and then they are converted to characters. IMO wine should convert X11 keycodes directly back to scancodes since neither of them are dependent on locale. Now wine seems to do something much more complicated and error prone. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
