Full Tilt Poker - Text looks fine - next boot, text garbled.

[ozymandius-2]

So im having this textual problem.  Im running Full Tilt Poker under Windows 98 mode and that seems to give me the best results, all the text shows up, the flash 10.0 works.  except il boot it one time and it will look fine, then the next time i boot it, the text is garbled jagged and edgy. I then cannot get it to go back to looking normal. i've messed with the DPI settings in WINE but this doesnt seem to effect it at all.

any ideas?

Just to update.  The first time I open the software on boot it looks fine, any subsequent opening of the software makes the text unreadable.

to get the text back to normal i need to restart the computer.

That could be caused by processes still left running after closing the program, and there is an open bug for that for this app: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19944

Try this: after closing the program, in a terminal type


Code:
wineserver -killall



then restart the program.

If that works, then it's the above bug. To work around it you'll have to manually kill the wineserver whenever you close the app.
