i have ubuntu 14.04 and wine, all up to date.

i installed Gothic and gothic 2 gold with play on linux, but the keyboard don't work.

I tried to change the windows version(xp, 7, 2000), to use some fix, like this.

What can i do?

I had the same problem before with wine but now its solved.

  1. Open "configrue wine"

  2. Select windows 8 in the field.

  3. Open graphics tab

  4. Uncheck the option "allow the window manager to control the windows" and then recheck it then apply--------> ok.

It worked for me maybe it can help you.

I solved this problem with installing font packages
winetricks corefonts

I had the same problem, the only solution I found was to play the game in windowed mode. To do so, open the Gothic.INI file in the System directory, and change (it should be line 157)

zStartupWindowed=0

to

zStartupWindowed=1

After this, I restart the game a couple of times and usually the second time the keyboard finally works. By the way, I only had this problem with the German version, never with the English one. Which one are you playing?

Still, playing the game not full screen sucks, if anybody has a better solution, I will be thankful!

have you tried configuring the keyboard to English (US) first. This works for me !
