While you are at it, you might want to copy fonts from win98 into the system/Fonts directory for Wine to use.

I have found you don't even have to *copy* fonts over (presuming you are keeping a Win partition, that is). I usually just switch to the system/Fonts directory, and type:


        ln -s /c/winnt/Fonts/*.ttf .
        ln -s /c/winnt/Fonts/*.fon .

(it is important you have the trailing dot when linking from more than one file)

I usually do it this way since I'm often blowing away & re-creating my Wine config, since I'm experimenting with getting some stubborn WinApps to install (such as eBay's TurboLister). A lot quicker that copying files over. (the .fon files may not even be needed, but it's one simple command, and hasn't crashed anything yet).
