Wine botched my fonts in Firefox

Post by skeedo »

After installing Wine, the default font in Firefox looks nasty. Search Google seems to reveal that Wine installs a font packaged called wine-tahoma-fonts, however I do not see this package installed anywhere.

I just need to get my font back to normal in Firefox...help?

Are you using an old version of Ubuntu, and an equally old Wine package? There was an old Ubuntu packaging bug where the Ubuntu Wine package was affecting the fonts in Firefox. http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=6154
