Bug ID: 36333
           Summary: Dear Esther: Freezing when pressing a key
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.7.18
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org
          Reporter: post+wine@ralfj.de
I am trying to run "Dear Esther" via Steam on Linux. According to AppDB
https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=25369, that's
supposed to work all-right.
The game comes up properly, I can go through the configuration to change the
video resolution, and I can go in-game and move the mouse to watch around.
However, as soon as I press a key on the keybaord (be it in the menu or in the
actual game), the game freezes for ~10sec and then exits.
This is with the current wine version 1.7.18. I also tried version 1.7.4 (which
is the most recent one reported on AppDB), with the same result.
I am using Debian testing amd64 and compiled wine myself. The system has both
an Intel GPU and an NVidia GeForce 630M. I am using bumblebee+primus to access
the NVidia GPU, but the problem in Dear Esther also happens when I run it on
the Intel GPU (unsurprisingly - it doesn't look GPU-related, after all). Other
games (TrackMania United, StarCraft II) work fine.
