[Fwd: Re: [Wine] Dead keyboard]

[Jose Young]

Later...

Well, I found that when wine installed Windows, it did not install the 
"standard" fonts, like Ariel or Times. So when I copied them to the wine 
version of Windows, the "hunt for fonts" was reduced to two... and I 
know which they are, so eventually...  Anyway, that problem cleared up.

But one more thing. I now start the program from the terminal with two 
lines of code that L. Rahyen sent me. Is there a way to put that into 
the Applications list, or even make a "button" that would run it? This 
method is pretty awkward.

Thanks for any suggestions

José


Running the program in a Wine Desktop solves the keyboard problem, and 
the program seems to be working normally.

But there is still an item that I do not understand. When I load the 
program, in the Terminal appear a series of something like 15 lines like 
this one: 

fixme:font:CreateScalableFontResourceA 
(1,"c:\\windows\\system32\\tmp85691.FOT","C:\\windows\\temp\\AAX964d.tmp",(null)): 
stub

Then when I close the program the same number of this line appears:

fixme:font:WineEngRemoveFontResourceEx :stub

The loading is very slow, because of those beginning processes. I can 
see that they have to do with fonts, but is it a problem of Windows 
fonts, or fonts of the program that I run? Would installing fonts be a 
solution, but how to know which ones and where?

Any help on this one would be very appreciated.
