I just downloaded wine-20050725 and compiled it myself under slackware 10.0.
I am not a regular user of wine, but I like to check on it every year or so to
see how it is
coming along.
I am having a problem with small fonts in wine. Sometimes the fonts are just
right, and sometimes
they are way too small. I can always fix the problem by deleting ~/.wine,
forcing wine to create
a fresh default .wine directory to work with. The is hardly a long term
solution, however ;-)
Deleting .wine/cachedmetrics* seemed to solve the problem as well but today that
stopped working
as well. I had to go back to rm -rf ~/.wine.
Assuming this is a problem with wine getting the wrong dots-per-inch value for
my monitor, how
could I configure wine to use a certain DPI value and not do whatever it is
doing to determine the
DPI which sometimes works and sometimes doesn't?
I have read through the manual for wine and I see the "resolution =
<res>" line in the config
file, which should be set between 60 and 120 for manipulating this, but I also
see that
.wine/config doesn't seem to exist anymore and I am not sure where to go in
the registry to
achieve the same effect.
Could someone clue me in as to what I am missing?
Also, is there a general mapping between the old config file keys and the new
corresponding
registry keys I could use to make use of the config documentation?
BTW, wine seems to have come a long way since I last looked at it. Great work
guys!
