Winbox + Wine = Black Borders

Wed Apr 20, 2011 2:19 am

Hi, I am facing a strange problem that I do not know if you already have a solution or "work around".
When I open the Winbox through Wine (Linux) all buttons are a black border and the window are difficult to understand, attached is an example screen.
I've done tests with newer and older versions of Winbox.exe and Wine (1.2 and 1.3).
Someone could tell me anything?

Thank you in advance any help.

我看到这一点。一次,有一个公关oblem with the fonts (you need msttcorefonts installed). I have installed 2 versions of these fonts and still this problem persists. I just removed my .wine directory to ensure that my wine customizations were not causing this issue. I am using Fedora 14 (new install) with wine 1.3.17. I would be very happy to see any help on this front, as this is really a painful way to use winbox. I generally use CLI for my own routers, but I use winbox to "remember" customer passwords. PLEASE, if anyone has some ideas, I'm game to try anything.

I think I'm on the track to fixing this issue. When I debug wine as it is loading winbox, it is looking for (and not finding) these font files: vgaoem.fon,vgafix.fon,serife.fon

Anyone have an idea where I can find these?

There is no hope. Cus mikritik said: "winbox and the dude working perfect on wine and you dont need linux native versions". LOL

and other LOL for mikrotik cus they are using linux kernel for there software for free and they are not making linux native clients for this software.

Well it appears I was looking at the wrong thing altogether. The fix was to alter a line in ~/.wine/system.reg.
这有一些荒谬的号码,我改变了it to 60 dpi just to be safe. here is what it looks like now:

[System\\CurrentControlSet\\Hardware Profiles\\Current\\Software\\Fonts] 1225516090
"FIXEDFON.FON"="vgafix.fon"
"FONTS.FON"="vgasys.fon"
"LogPixels"=dword:00000060
"OEMFONT.FON"="vgaoem.fon"

Much better, I hope this helps someone out there.:guitar:
It did help someone else out there... ME! Thanks. This helped me fix the problem of turning the screen resolution up way too high to see all of the screen... just as described in the original post.

This is easy!

If you have a separate boot for Windows (2K, XP, or Vista) you just copy the fonts from the C:\Windows\Fonts\ folder into your Wine's windows\fonts\ folder.

Simple as that.

I don't need a native Linux version. I just need to find the proper fonts.

I've seen that one as well as the other one you mentioned. I don't have a windows xp (or windows anything for that matter) CD. I don't use Windows, so those are not an option. Thanks for the ideas and your search, though.

it is a long shot, but if you have Intel card you should try to upgrade your drivers. There are reports of different windows programs having these black artefacts in simple UI interface using wine on different flavours of Linux.

check if you are running xf86-video-intel 2.12.0 or newer if so, try to downgrade to 2.11.0

Hello, i'm using Ubuntu 11.04 and for solve my problem I added to the registry of Wine:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\X11 Driver]
"ClientSideWithRender"="N"

Create a file test.reg with this key, and on terminal:
regedit test.reg

My problem was solved.

I downgraded to Fedora 13, which uses the intel driver verion 2.11.0 and this solved my problem as well.

Old thread, I know, but I had a similar problem after upgrading to Ubuntu 14.04 and this workaround fixed it. Winbox fonts changed, text fields were incomplete, and text cursor was misplaced, so when I typed something, new text appeared in a different place than the cursor. Like this:

Do you all know that you need to put a gateway in your fixed ip configuration in order to use mac discovery in wine ?

if you use dhcp there is no problem
