           Version: 0.9.56.

With KDE 3.5.x, if I switch the keyboard layout the Greek, then many keys on
the keyboard do not work. i.e. the entire bottom row - Z through M do not work.

I tried with notepad and Picasa on KDE 3.5.6, Greek locale, Greek keyboard
layout. Locale says:

Forgot to mention, it works fine in Gnome.

Does it help if you execute 'setxkbmap en,gr' (or en,el) beforehand?

"setxkbmap en,gr" returns an error: "Error loading new keyboard description"

"setxkbmap gr" doesn't help.

The middle keyboard row - asdf... works; the bottom row does not; parts of the
top row works.

Sometimes, if I randomly type on the keyboard, I can get it into a state where
all the keys that didn't used to work to all produce the same character when
pressed.

Can you generate a +x11drv,+key,+keyboard,+event log with notepad? Just
start it, press a couple of misbehaving keys, and exit.
(Do not forget to compress the log before attaching)

I made a typo: can you try 'setxkbmap us,gr' or 'setxkbmap us,el'?

Is this a Wine bug or a KDE bug?

I'm leaning towards Wine bug because the keyboard works fine in native apps.

Behavior seems even worse. Here I am in Firefox, pressing asdfzxcv with gr,us:
ασδφζχψω, but in notepad/wordpad, all those keys don't do anything.

That's expected if your locale is not Greek.

Also, I don't see Greek characters until I change the font to Times New Roman
or any other which actually has them.

I did set my locale to Greek.

export LANG=el_GR.UTF-8; setxkbmap gr,us; wine wordpad.

In wordpad, the font defaults to Times New Roman.

Does 'locale -a' list the el_GR locale?

Wine notepad works even with en_US.UTF-8 locale (since it's a unicode app).

When I originally reported the bug, it was on a machine with the greek locales.
I don't have that machine anymore.

I dont know if it should be closed. I ran a quick test on wine v43 here are the
results:

using the gnome desktop environment, and I don't have set my locale to greek,
should i try to write on wine notepad with a greek keyboard layout (meaning
changing the language from english to greek) the bug is repeatable.

The bottom row doesnt type any regognisable character, (except μ), asdf types
asdf even with greek layout instead of ασδφ and etc...

Mind you that locale -a does print "el_GR.utf8" as one of the list elements

But If i set my locale to greek, (meaning all the string menus are in greek,
same goes for the menu items of wine, notepad = σημειοματάριο) everything works
as should be
