and some more info now:
- on the Knoppix-Debian box after filling the empty windows/fonts folder
rconip.exe now displays 100% correct! The other app rdb.exe still failed, but
that was due to old Wine version 0.9.12; this apps needs to be started with
wineconsole, and it seems that older Wine versions default to --backend=curses;
after I used the option --backend=user rdb.exe now also displays 99% perfect
(only the few trailing chars remain)
- on both SuSE 10.3 and 11.1 both rconip.exe and rdb.exe dont work by default;
when I added the fonts I found that SuSE uses windows/Fonts - dont know if Wine
is here case-sensitive, or if that changed now with later versions, just want
to mention it; did also rename the folder to all lowercase as it appears on the
Knoppix-Debian box, but that didnt change things. Now when I manually configure
both apps to use Andale Mono font instead of Fixedsys then both apps display
same as on the Knoppix-Debian box: rconip.exe 100% correct, and rdb.exe 99%.
Will tomorrow make some more screenshots to show you the remaining issue.
Summary:
- Knoppix-Debian seems to work out-of-the-box (after adding M$ fonts), and
selects automatically Lucida Console font.
- SuSE needs manual tweak of font set to Andale Mono; Lucida Console doesnt
appear in the config menu of the apps.
