i found it was because the winex window lost focus, and what i typed turned up on the terminal i launched it from :o)

try making sure that the winex window keeps focus, or get rid of anything behind the window.

hope this helps.

I had the same thing happening, everything I typed went into a term or wherever. Heres some snippets from my config to get it to work for me:

Code:

; Allow the window manager to manage created windows
"Managed" = "Y"
; Use a desktop window of 640x480 for Wine
##"Desktop" = "1024X768"
; Use XFree86 DGA extension if present
; (make sure /dev/mem is accessible by you !)
"UseDGA" = "Y"
; Use XShm extension if present
"UseXShm" = "N"
; Use XVidMode extension if present
"UseXVidMode" = "Y"
; Enable DirectX mouse grab
"DXGrab" = "Y"



You can see I turn on Managed mode, but commented out the Desktop area. This was the only way I could get wine to take focus without running it in a window. And turning on DXGrab makes sure I keep focus.

After I did that everything was peachy, it keeps focus and will run in whatever res is set in the game.
