I just updated Wine to 1.1.43, and I'm now encountering this problem with The Journal software by DavidRM. (Btw, I'm running Ubuntu Karmic with all the latest updates.) This problem did not occur before I updated Wine. Problem is the visible I-bar won't move in the main text box. It remains on the first space of the line of text that is "in focus." However, it seems my ability to type isn't hindered. [Image: http://i42.tinypic.com/aktmd5.png ] For example, if I press the "end" key and type, my text correctly appears at the end of the line. But the I-bar remains at the beginning. See: [Image: http://i41.tinypic.com/dfwwtg.png ] My text appears at the end, where I expect it to, but the I-bar remains at the first space on the line. Essentially, I can type, but I can't tell where my text will appear until I start typing! Also, it appears I cannot highlight and cut/copy text unless I highlight ALL of the text with my cursor. Any ideas?

I've not been able to run a test with a recent version of Wine, but I'm working on it. James McKenzie
> What version of Wine did you upgrade from?I don't know... I download the updates whenever they appear in Ubuntu's Update Manager. Don't always check to see what the new version is. I assume it's just whatever was available before the latest update. Is there a change log or something I can open to see what I had before?
I managed to find this from the Synaptic Package Manager: Date: 4-29-10 Code: wine-gecko (1.1.42-0ubuntu1) to 1.1.43-0ubuntu1~karmicppa1 wine1.2 (1.1.42-0ubuntu1) to 1.1.43-0ubuntu1~karmicppa1 I apparently had 1.1.42, which was installed on the 8th. So the problem appeared in 1.1.43.
