           Summary: Half-Life - task switching regression in Wine 0.9.17
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.17.
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-user
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org
        ReportedBy: makomk(a)lycos.co.uk


There appears to be a regression in task-switching away from a (fullscreen) 
game of Half-Life between Wine 0.9.16 and 0.9.17. In 0.9.16, using Alt-Tab to 
switch away from Half-Life to another program usually worked correctly (the 
game was paused and Wine released control of the mouse). Sometimes it didn't 
work properly, but this was easily worked around by task-switching back to 
Half-Life and away again.

In 0.9.17, any attempt to task-switch away from Half-Life using Alt-Tab whilst 
the game is running does not pause the game, and leaves Wine in control of the 
mouse making it unusable (since it can't be moved from the centre of the 
screen and still controls the game). In addition, on switching back to the 
game, the Windows mouse cursor is still visible (and the only way to make it 
go away is to use Esc to exit to the menu, then return to the game).

I am using Half-Life 1.1.0.8 (in OpenGL mode), X.org 7.0.0, and the KDE 3.5.3 
desktop and window manager.
