wine users - Dec 2005 - Font problems with AstroGadget font

Hi,

I'm trying to get Solarfire Deluxe running on recent versions of Wine.  
The main problem at the moment is that the AstroGadget font does not 
display correctly (it displays as little blocks under Windows 2000 
emulation, as little Aries symbols under Windows 98 emulation).  The 
last time it displayed correctly was Wine 20050830.

Using regression testing, I found that the patch that broke the display 
was this one: http://cvs.winehq.org/patch.py?id=20043.  The font is 
freely downloadable from here: http://www.rodsuskin.co.za/AstroGadget.ttf.

Is there anything else I can do to help fix this problem?

thanks,
David Moore

I do not see anything wrong here using notepad or charmap.exe from
win98.
Are you using wine 9.3? What version of freetype installed?
