Tony,Some comparison of what fonts are loaded on each machine would be interesting (if they are the same then looking at the logs with -debugmsg +font in the command line might shed some light on the issue.)

Hi. Thanks for the response. I am actually working on this very idea,
but unfortunately it's a huge topic, and with absolutely no idea what
Wine really requires I'm seemingly just throwing darts with a blindfold
on.
One of the first things I've looked at is the 'chkfontpath' command.
Both RH 7.3 machines are identical, and look like this:
[root@Godzilla root]# chkfontpath
Current directories in font path:
1: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled
2: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled
3: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled
4: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
5: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1
6: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo
7: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic
8: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID
9: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/local
10: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/latin2/Type1
11: /usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType
12: /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1
13: /usr/share/fonts/ja/TrueType
[root@Godzilla root]#
I have been looking at the directories listed above, trying to
compare things. There are different numbers of files, but I have not yet
found what the differences are. I'm not a Unix guy so writing scripts to
do this is beyond me. I'll get there though.
Beyond that, I find that there are fonts in the .kde directory in my
user account. Does this mean there's a chance that other fonts are
somehow involved? Or that KDE is doing something extra here? I most
certainly don't know.
Anyway, I continue to appreciate your interest and your help.
The short story at this point is that when I replaced the config file with the one from my user account it went through rebuilding the font metrics and ran wcmd. Also when I restored the old config file the error came back. The config file for root was really old so I need to spend some time figuring out what keys/settings are breaking it.
At this point I have it narrowed down to the attached diff hunk. I've got to call it quits for tonight so but I thought I would get this out.
