Additional info:
relevent ps aux output:
 3668 pts/5    S+     0:00 notepad.exe                               
 3672 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/lib/../bin/wineserver
 3673 ?        Ssl    0:00 c:\windows\system32\explorer.exe /desktop 
last system call of the processes involed from strace:
$ strace -p 3668 # notepad.exe
Process 3668 attached - interrupt to quit
futex(0x7d6a51f8, FUTEX_WAIT, 2, NULL

$ strace -p 3672
Process 3672 attached - interrupt to quit
gettimeofday({1176872944, 756288}, NULL) = 0
epoll_wait(6, 

]$ strace -p 3673
Process 3673 attached - interrupt to quit
futex(0x7c4778a8, FUTEX_WAIT, 2, NULL

My uneducated guess: some sort of dead lock.

Comment 1 Scott Tsai 2007-04-18 05:39:29 UTC
XMODIFIERS='' notepad works.

This is a bad interaction between wine and the XIM server part of scim primarily
used for east asian text input:

I wonder if upsream know about this problem ?



Comment 2 Andreas Bierfert 2007-04-25 20:30:28 UTC
First of all thanks for reporting this. There has been some discussion a while
back about scim support. I will see if there is an open bug otherwise I will
file one. Closing here as UPSTREAM.
