Fonts look ugly using wine in 9.04

Asked by mikehi

Ubuntu 9.04 64 bit, GeForce 7025 nForce 630a display, 128X1024 res, dual core AMD processor.

Fonts do not display properly using wine or any windows application within wine. The size is fine but they have the appearance of bitmaps rather than real fonts. Changing the size in wine cfg does change the size of the fonts but does not make them look better.

Thanks for any help,

Mike

Maybe Enabling Smooth Fonts In WINE would help:
