Rikki,

    Please try to apply the following patch against the new CVS version (on /dlls/x11drv directory). This patch will allow keyboard.c to use your locale setting by the usage of xkb extension on X11R6. Please notice that this requires that you don't have xkbdisable on your XF86Config file (or XF86Config-4).

Subject:	dead keys treatment using XmbLookupString
Date:	Wed, 08 Jan 2003 12:48:06 -0200
From:	Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@brturbo.com>
To:	wine-patches@winehq.com

Modifyied files: keyboard.c window.c desktop.c
CVS Version: 20021225

Change Log:
    Add dead key support using XmbLookupString on ToUnicode function, if xkb is available otherwise It falls back
to the old code.
    The first Window will be used to define the XIC used by the functions.
