TTF Bitmaps are such a bad thing - that's what this bug is all about.

I agree with Eric, it's nothing to do with Tahoma as such: Karmic simply
renders all fonts using embedded bitmaps where they are available. Did
this used to happen? I don't remember having the problem before.
Most embedded bitmaps are much worse renderings that what FreeType would

I think the problem goes beyond wine1.2
I'm noticing the crappy fonts on a fresh Karmic install even after the
restricted Microsoft and Liberation fonts were installed. It wasn't like
this in Jaunty.
The 20-tahoma.conf file is the only thing that fixes it.
** Also affects: fontconfig (Ubuntu)
When 20-tahoma.conf is installed the font looks much better for me.
Though the question is if wine1.2 should force the installtion of
tahoma-replacement as a system font.

Well, my LCD screen is having problems with its backlight so I can't see
