--- Comment #4 from Vincent Beers VincentBeers@gmail.com 2010-10-25 12:18:27 CDT --- Update: connecting an external keyboard halfway through (while Wine is running) mysteriously DOES make input work. Strange. When I did this, Wine spew out this message twice:
fixme:keyboard:X11DRV_ActivateKeyboardLayout 0x4090409, 0000: semi-stub!
