Are you using the GUI launch or something from codeweavers? Otherwise, I'd say try starting solitaire from the commandline (i.e. wine /pathto/sol.exe) and find out what messages are being sent. If it's building the font database that should only happen once. Hmm, I never have the wineserver running myself, so I don't know what affect that would have. Hmm, I'm no expert (just a user), so I'm just relating my experience. > Oh, and I have 384MB of RAM, so that's not the problem (not that anyone > has suggested that it is). Shouldn't be a problem, I only have 128 MB myself.
