Thanks for the feedback, patrik. It is much appreciated.

The problem is that the version of Winetricks on your system is over 2 years older than the version on my system. It is trying to download the corefonts from a link which no longer works. My system is also running Wine 2.0. I can certainly understand you not wanting to play around too much with a working system. The 10 corefonts installers are:

Code:

~ $ ls $HOME/.cache/winetricks/corefonts/
arial32.exe   comic32.exe   georgi32.exe  times32.exe   verdan32.exe
arialb32.exe  courie32.exe  impact32.exe  trebuc32.exe  webdin32.exe

I suspect the old version of wine will not be a problem. If you can download these installers manually (or you may already have copies somewhere on your system) you can go to a shell, specify the WINEPREFIX and install with wine arial32.exe .....

Anyway, thanks again for the feedback.
