I am very sorry but I am not able to reproduce this at all. My window looks exactly like your attachment even so I am running on 1.1.12. Could you try the old trick of moving ~/.wine to ~/wine-old and see what happens with a fresh wine directory? Also see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=481248 this might be related.
I should have already mentioned this in the first post. I have rm -rf'ed ~/.wine several times and unfortunately, it doesn't change this problem. Actually I have a quite similar machine that also looks quite nicely with 1.1.12-1, although it's appearance is still not identical to that of 1.1.10-1. To me, it looks like 1.1.10-1 uses some sort of font-smoothing where 1.1.12-1 does not. On my "working" machine, fonts are not smoothed either, but for some reason they are rendered a whole lot nicer. I'll attach a screenshot in a minute.

There is no doubt in my mind that the problems have come with changes in the way, wine renders it's fonts (smoothed in 1.1.10 vs non-smoothed in 1.1.12). The question is, which is the correct. When the non-smoothed font-rendering works, it actually looks very well (like a normal windows machine). But it appears to be a whole lot harder to get it right. Having installed ms corefonts on my machines screwed the basic application fonts up. After removing that package, the winmine license window looks like that of the other machine. However, I'm running IE (installed with ies4linux) and even though the IE application font looks just as well as the winmine (still not smoothed), the content of the webpages looks just as crappy as the applications did earlier.
I experienced this bug in my machine, too. Downgrading to 1.1.7 helped.
1.1.10-1 is still the latest version from Fedora, that looks properly. I just tried the latest 1.1.15-1 packages, but fonts with this version are jagged and ugly too...
Hi there. I found this page, that helped me enable FontSmoothing in the latest fedora update og wine and now things are okay. http://www.wine-reviews.net/wine-reviews/tips-n-tricks/how-to-enable-font-anti-aliasing-in-wine.html So the real "bug" here seems to be a new default behaviour?
I had the same problem using a fresh install of Fedora 10. Adding those reg entries mentioned on #8 fixed the problem.
Upstream bug: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16729
This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '10'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 10 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-12-17. Fedora 10 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
