Wine Font Problem on Madrake 10.1

The fonts are wrong and the size x:y seams also to be wrong in open dialog.
I installed the wine rpm with the Mandrake Packet Manager
Any idea what is wrong?

Try changing the default font in your ~/.wine/config file.

Hi
I changed local users .wine/config
from
[fonts]
;Read the Fonts topic in the Wine User Guide before adding aliases
;See a couple of examples for russian users below
"Resolution" = "96"
"Default" = "-adobe-helvetica-"
"DefaultFixed" = "fixed"
"DefaultSerif" = "-adobe-times-"
"DefaultSansSerif" = "-adobe-helvetica-"
to
[fonts]
;Read the Fonts topic in the Wine User Guide before adding aliases
;See a couple of examples for russian users below
"Resolution" = "96"
"Default" = "sans"
"DefaultFixed" = "terminal"
"DefaultSerif" = "sans"
"DefaultSansSerif" = "sans"
No success. Still this fonts...

I don't know that you can use the generic "sans" like you can with css. Can you? Try giving it a specific font that is found in the font directory listed in the config file.
