Hi all, I get this when using my game for every key I hit, though the keys work fine. err:keyboard:ActivateKeyboardLayout Only default system keyboard layout supported. Call ignored. Typing is a major pain. There is a huge delay from keypress to the letter appearing on screen, though the correct characters are typed. Keyboard is a Microsoft natural pro, language is english. What do I need to change? I use KDE and have tried canadian/english. PC101 PC105 but all that does is change it to keyboard map not defined or some such and more about setting keyboard to brazilian lol :-) XFree86 is set at PC101 and US. thanks Kevin -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Try it with a different keyboard, if that works, then you know.

Try emulating a different version of windows,The program will only run if I use version nt40, else it gives unhandled exception, starting debugger.... but the debugger never launches, though I've used it successfully in the past and its mapped to a dos drive, and set up in the registry. check> your .wine/config file. What version of linux are you using?Redhat 7.3 up2date. If I change my keyboard setting in kde from the defaults to, say Canadian or US, and pc101 or microsoft natural pro, wine then gives a different error saying it couldn't find a keyboard layout, and using closest match .. brazlian ? lol Where does wine get its keyboard information? Xwindows? Shouldn't I be able to pick a keyboard setting soemwhere to get around this, even if it doesn't allow me full use of whatever keyboard I'm actually using?> > Chris Berry > compjma@hotmail.com > Systems Administrator > JM AssociatesKevin
