             Bug #: 28512
           Summary: FPS games don't recognize mouse buttons and keyboard
                    keys ingame
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.29
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: ajsb at vfemail.net
    Classification: Unclassified


I check this issue both in UBUNTU and SLACKWARE using several versions of WINE
(1.3.28 besides 1.3.29) using packaged WINE and also compiled source by myself.
Problems are always the same no matter what including with or without
winetricks use.


1 - There are several FPS games like Battlefield 2 , Call of Duty Black
Ops,etc. where the left and right mouse buttons are not properly recognized
when playing...
Heres some examples...
Black Ops: 
Mouse recognized in bindings menu but in game , the recognition of left/right
button is erratic and kinda of "stutters"...i.e. i use right button to run and
i press it, for a fraction of second, i run but then, it behaves as i no longer
am pressing it. Left button, used by me for A.D.S. , almost same thing, i
pressed it and weapon stays in A.D.S. position for some fraction of time but
then goes back to low position...sometimes it seems to want to go back to
A.D.S. for a a fraction of second but it fais...If i stop press button and
press again, the cycle restarts.
Battlefield 2:
Left/Right mouse buttons are not even recognized in bindings menu !!!...and
even in navigation by menus they feel a bit "stiff".


2-Same games have issues with keyboard...the keys are simply NOT recognized at
ALL in ANY circumstances (in game, menus, you name it)  except ESC key and only
when we press it for the 1st time !!!

Only managed to play these games with a mouse + gamepad using a gamepad to keys
emulator, more exactly JoyToKey...that is a Windows program that has no problem
at all recognizing my gamepad and keyboard !!!

Infact, i have NO problems at all with other types of programs or games like
RTS games  like:

Men Of War
Faces of War
World in Conflict
etc.

These issues are only affecting FPS games !

This is very strange because i had no problem to play these games in the past
with older versions of WINE.
