Same here. I installed Derive 5 with wine which worked perfect. I then copied
the Derive ttf fonts to the X11 truetype fonts dir and they were recognized
and setup in fonts.dir/scale by the unix font install tools.
But I did not get them shown in the derive window.
There is something working not perfect. The switches between the 2d/3d and
algebraic windows did not work. I have to open another one then close it to
plot a new graph in the old grafics window.
Another bug which I also found in DynaGeo another mathematical program. On
every start of derive or dynageo a new empty part is written to the
configuration file of each program; it's like this
[ ]
While dynageo is not confused by this derive will startup without menus and
nothing could be done.
To clear up this situation I wrote both configuration files to a safe place
and copy them over the configuration file on startup using a startup script.
