Dear sirs, I hope you can point me to where I can find a solution to
this problem.

Please refer to this image: http://www.brod.com.br/files/images/Captura_de_tela.png

The mouse and keyboard shortcuts work fine, except in the small
window. If you click on Geral, Conteúdo, OK or Cancelar, it works. In
the internal window, however, clicking on Incluir, Alterar, Excluir,
Consultar just doesn't work. Using the keyboard shortcuts, however (Alt
+I, Alt+A, Alt+E and Alt+C) it works fine. Any hint on why the mouse
just doesn't work here?

Thanks!

Cesar

If you are using a recent wine (version 1.1.32 is current) then it needs
debugging. Otherwise try a newer version.

If still there, file the bug on http://bugs.winehq.org

If there is a free (trial) version of the program available on the net,
then please mention that.

Rein.

Rein, I have upgraded to the 1.1.32 version. Now I have a new problem.
Wine just doesn't seem to understand what I type. The characters
doesn't show up and even if I blind type the correct user and password
I cannot pass the first screen. However, other applications such as
Firefox for Windows work fine so I am assuming this is an application
specific problem.

A new screenshot is here http://www.brod.com.br/files/images/Captura_de_tela_Zeta.png

As the application worked fine under wine 1.0.1-0ubuntu6 (other than
the mouse clicks I mentioned before) I am pretty much sure I might
have left something behind.

I just followed the instructions on http://www.winehq.org/download/deb
and although I am not a real heavy wine user, I can move around quite
Ok around install procedures and configurations.

Unfortunately, the program has no free trial... It is a proprietary
movie catalog program that is the only thing keeping us from fully
moving into Linux.

Thanks again!

Cesar

1) If you did not do this: re-install the program with a new wine prefix
(eg. delete/rename the ~/.wine directory)
2) Are there any error messages when you start the program from a
terminal?

Very few wine developers are following the newsgroup these days. You
should take this discussion to the wine users forum
(http://forum.winehq.org) or file a bug at http://bugs.winehq.org

If this new problem is real ( does not go away using the clean wine
prefix) then it is a regression. You will be asked to perform a
regression test ( http://wiki.winehq.org/RegressionTesting ), since that
greatly increases the chance of fixing the bug.

Thanks again Rein. I did a fresh install following your
recommendations. Still the same problem. As you recommended, I am
posting this question on http://forum.winehq.org

I am still confident it is not a bug and I must be missing
something... If the worse happens, my users will have to leave with
the keybord shortcuts for a while.

Best wishes!

Cesar
