Don't know about Wine. I'm new to it too, (had to get it to run Napster)
but about TrueType, RedHat's xfs server is actually xfstt, little hacked
to make it "more secure" (they removed the ability to serve fonts via
TCP/IP - only Unix sockets). So just edit /etc/X11/fs/config and add
your TTF directory. Of course you gotta generate the fonts.dir in the
TTF directory but I assume you did it already.
In fact, RH6.1 X server itself was compiled with TTF support, so you can
just insert the FontPath to it in /etc/X11/XF86Config.
If after restart, you get the fonts disappeared, could be your font
server dies for some reason, so remember you can always add a FontPath
entry.
