If you set up wine for "client side" rendering, then it does not use xfs, there is no cache, and I think these problems might go away. RH7.3 has all the support, which basically is a very recent version of libXrender, and you also need a current (post april) version of wine. To get wine to use client side rendering, it just needs a directory C:\windows\fonts with a bunch of TT fonts in it. I suspect there is a way to tell wine to look at another directory, but I don't know what that is. You can get these fonts from a real windows install. Or download a bunch from here: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/fontpack/default.htm _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@winehq.com http://www.winehq.com/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
