error log

Keyboard input in FFXI with Windower 4 has been broken for a long time. It
fails in 7.20, and all the way down to 5.0rc2 or earlier (I stopped testing
there).

Keyboard input works in wine-staging-5-0rc5, and no longer works in
wine-staging-5-0-rc6.

My installation for which I posted the log uses dxvk and dgVoodoo, but the
problem also occurs without that.

Steps to reproduce:

1. make a 32 bit prefix, windows version seems noncritical (7 or 10).

2. install official FFXI distribution from
http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/download/media/install_win.html

(install hangs for a seemingly long time at some step, disk space check if I
recall, just wait)

3. winetricks dotnet462 gdiplus (without dotnet, windower will not work.
Gdiplus just makes the fonts in the windower console look nicer, it's not
absolutely required for reproduction.)

4. install windower 4.3 from https://www.windower.net/ , to

$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/windower4.3/

5. wine $WINEPREFIX/drive_c/windower4.3/Windower.exe

At this step, you'll need an FFXI subscription and character to log in and get
to the point where you see that the keyboard doesn't work.
