Fuzzy Font Across all bottles on Linux Mint 22.1

Good evening,

Is anyone having issues with Crossover Linux 25 on Linux Mint 22.1? All the fonts are fuzzy in all my bottles. I can resolve the problem on an Intel GPU by adjusting the settings, but Nvidia GPUs are still causing an issue. All my laptops run a Nvidia GPU. The bottles are game emulators and office software.

System Specs:
CPU - i7-13620H
GPU - RTX 4050 Max-Q / Intel UHD Graphics (Switchable Graphics)
Ram - DDR5 32GB
Storage - NVME 2.5 TB (500GB Boot + 2TB Storage)

I use also Linux Mint 22.1 and Crossover 25 and do not have issues with fonts. It might be related to NDIVIA driver maybe? I only have AMD GPUs

I run Fedora 41 and use Quicken and I feel there is an issue with the fonts. To me they seem a bit unclear. Also, some fonts in Quicken can no longer be adjusted. Here's something I posted a few days ago in another thread:

Non register fonts are not adjustable. Quicken preferences let you choose the register fonts name and sizes. All the other fonts, like the account list, menu texts, etc., are not adjustable (and never were) from any Quicken preferences. Instead, to adjust all these other fonts I would go to open the crossover gui, select the Quicken bottle, open the wine configuration control panel from the right hand menu, select the graphics tab and adjust the screen resolution dpi setting. That changed the size of the non-register fonts. Now with crossover 25, changing than has no effect on the non-register fonts. I don't believe I ever did find a way to change the font style name. The sizes are a bit small for my taste (and old eyes) so I'd like to make them a but bigger. The font style is fine with me. It's a sans-serif font which I prefer. However, if there is a way to change that, I'd love to know how.

For non-Quicken users, a register is where you enter all the various transactions, like a credit card charge, investment purchase, etc. Quicken has a preference setting to change the font name and font size of the register but nothing else. The rest, I assume, is whatever Windows uses and I've never found a way to change that or even find out what the default is. I imagine it's buried in the registry.

I sent a note to support to alert them to this, which opened a support ticket, but have not heard back from them yet.

(Edit to original): I do not have a separate graphics card. It's whatever is built into the gigabyte motherboard.

I think there is a bug in the software needing to be patched. Thank you for the feedback.
