            Bug ID: 43010
           Summary: Wine does not pass scancodes properly
           Product: Wine
           Version: 2.7
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: hid
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: ilmaisin at openmailbox.org
      Distribution: ---

Wine does not seem to pass the scancodes properly to the Win32 apps.

- On Ubuntu 16.04's Unity desktop, Win32 apps see the situation like the
keyboard was physically rewired to the layout that is currently active.

- On Gnome 3 other hand, it looks like the keyboard was physically rewired to
the uppermost option in the Gnome's keyboard layout configuration (!).

In all cases, the apps that use resulting characters instaed of scancodes work
well, receiving those letters that they are supposed to. Also, xev receives the
proper scancodes.

Please modify Wine so that it will pass the actual, real, physical scancodes to
the apps requiring them. This is absolutely essential for gaming with non-US
and/or non-QWERTY keyboard layouts.
