As for reseting Xresources, try this in terminal (not as root but as currently logged in user): # xrdb -query | grep -vE 'Xft.(anti|hint|rgba)' | xrdb
It should clean up Xft-related Xresources from active instance of Xorg and make Wine use the fontconfig instead.
I tried that, and wine still ignores my fontconfig settings.
I also confirm this strange behavior. Definitely it's a bug. I had to remove this from /etc/fonts/local.conf:
Even after removing similar lines from my local.conf I still don't get proper font rendering.
also setting the following Xft settings using xrdb (put it in a file and run 'xrdb <file>' does not help: --- Xft.lcdfilter: lcdlegacy Xft.antialias: 1 Xft.hinting: 1 Xft.rgba: rgb Xft.hintstyle: hintfull --- OR --- Xft.lcdfilter: none Xft.antialias: 0 Xft.hinting: 0 Xft.rgba: rgb Xft.hintstyle: hintnone --- Either way fonts are still rendered the same way, making them look somewhat similar to font-config's 'hintslight'
