Wine 1.1.14

I just saw that Wine 1.1.14 was released, and it looks like they fixed the Steam Friends feature!

I'd install it, but I'm backing up my system at the moment so that I can test the latest Kubuntu alpha installer and rebuild everything as Ext4.

Installing now. Steam friends issue? The fonts?

The only issue I have with steam friends is the wierd fonts. I'll give it a try in a minute.

I believe the problem had to do with accessing the friends list/chat inside of a running game.  I never used that feature myself, but I understand a lot of other people were missing it.

Oh. I am a admin over 5 servers in Team Fortress 2. I get messages all the time needing to go to another server or what not, but I always run in a window so I can talk when changing servers, so I didn't even know that didn't work. Sooo. . .  Know how to fix the fonts?

Wow... that is an ugly font problem!

Which version of Wine are you running, and did you install the MS core fonts?  I do not have the same issue, using the latest Git.  I restored the .wine directory I had been using in my 8.10 setup, but there was nothing too special about it.

Maybe give winetricks (http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks) a try:  Use it to install all the available font packages and then restart wine completely (wineserver -k).
