Welcome vette! Heaven forbid that you have to drive using the mouse... I think I had a similar issue with arrow keys under Fedora in the past. Try adding the optionCode Selectusescancodes=false
to the [sdl] section of dosbox.conf, or the appropriate configuration file you're using. As you may know, dosbox.conf is the default configuration file for DOSBox 0.72 - if you don't have one and aren't using a front end runCode SelectCONFIG -writeconf /home/yourUserName/dosbox.conf
to create a dosbox.conf with default options in your home folder.
You sir, are awesome.
Turns out I am still pretty bad with the keyboard but it is a lot easier to use. Thanks a lot for the fix!

Dosbox mounts and starts Stunts just fine. I can go through the options and start a track and play using the mouse but for some reason it will not let me play using the keyboard. When I specifically click the 'keyboard' option under control input menu none of the buttons to control the car work properly. The arrow keys, a, z don't do anything. 'D' does toggle the dashboard, 'M' switches to mouse control (which I can then use to drive), and oddly enough my right control key will turn the steering wheel to the right but the rest of the keys do not do anything.
I tried search and didn't see any similar problems but has anyone heard of this happening and has an idea of how to fix it? At least the mouse input works but as it is tricky to use I would prefer keyboard if the problem can be solved.
