Re: Wine and yet another font problem

This is frustrating. I don't even see ANY fonts on the buttons or elsewhere when I bring up Wine GUI configuration menu. I'm going to try using the open source driver and maybe that will let me play Diablo II.

Yes, it does, and it also kills 3d...

Re: Wine and yet another font problem

BTW I still have this problem. I use xf86-video-nv so I can use wine, but of course 3d and programs like Zsnes doesn't work.

I have Ati Radeon 9250 somewhere, but I can't find it It's weird when you want to switch to Ati..

Re: Wine and yet another font problem

It seems like wine has a probem with font smoothing doesn't work in wine-1.1.12 ( I use wine 1.1.16-1 sstill the same !?)

see:
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16729

do this ,make a file, and put this in:

REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
"FontSmoothing"="2"
"FontSmoothingType"=dword:00000002
"FontSmoothingGamma"=dword:00000578
"FontSmoothingOrientation"=dword:00000001

And run it with :
regedit "filename"

that will turn "off" Font smoothing.
And now I can see my fonts in wine
