overrideredirect vs. text entry etc. widget

[kernus]

I just googled this post:

http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2006-September/575832.html

something like:

from Tkinter import *

root = Tk()
Entry(root).pack()
Button(root, text='Quit', command=sys.exit).pack()
root.overrideredirect(1)
root.mainloop()

the button works boths under linux(debian) and windows, but the entry
widget only works on windows, any idea?

I am making a skinnalbe music player, so the issue must be solved.
