PlayOnLinux starts fine. When I select Internet Explorer 8 for installation, the virtual disk is created, but then it hangs, just before the installation wizard begins. A new window is created in the dock, but when maximized it shows nothing but a vertical line.

I found this in the log:

Wine cannot find the FreeType font library.  To enable Wine to
use TrueType fonts please install a version of FreeType greater than
or equal to 2.0.5.

Any ideas?
