Summary: Conquer/Conquista: garbled input in user/pass boxes from login screen Product: Wine Version: CVS Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-gui AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: rmh@aybabtu.com
In Conquer/Conquista, input typed in user/pass boxes from login screen is garbled. I think some characters are skipped (note: in order to type in the user/pass boxes, first you have to know about the other bugs that prevent you from reaching this point, see http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=4055
Edit cursor moves constantly from start to end of the edit box (about 1-2 Hz). when you hit a key, there's a small chance (I'd say ~1/8) that the letter will be ignored, thus creating broken input. Attempting to correct anything using arrows and/or delete/backspace just seems to make it worse, so when I miss something I just restart.
I've found it practical to use clipboard (note: clipboard only works with virtual desktop!! maybe because of Bug 7552 ?) to get the username in, but doing the same for password doesn't result (not sure why), so I type the password manualy, taking much care to re-type characters when they've been lost.
