wine users - Jan 2002 - font problems

Hello!

I'm using Red hat 7.2 with WINE installed.  When I try to run the Windows
notepad under WINE, the console lists many fonts that it can't load (about
50) and the WINE program takes about 10 minutes to load the program.  How
can I fix the problem?

Mark Farnell

I ran into this a lot in the past, too.

First, it ought to load faster the second time.

Second, can you remove the bad fonts?

Third, Red Hat ships with an old Wine, can you try a
newer one?

How can I remove the "bad fonts" you've mentioned above?
