Sorry if this has already been asked but I couldn't find a solution on my own. I have a programmable remote and running the remote software in Wine works mostly correct, except the fonts in one particular dropdown are garbled. I copied all the fonts over from a Vista box without any change.

I know it's a vague question but does anyone have any ideas? Screenshot attached.

Thanks.

Which Wine version are you using?

If not the latest then try wine 1.1.21 - http://winehq.org/download

Sorry for not specifying!

Tested using 1.0.1 and 1.1.21. Behavior exists in both.

hmm, ok

does the following command help?

wget http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks && sh winetricks comctl32
