I don't remember anything about any package group named fonts last I looked there. As to the current state of the GUI package manager in F9, I have no idea what it looks like or can do, because starting KDE4 from KDM kills video or puts display to sleep in both KDE and all ttys ever since last updates on my Intel 845G. Try thinking like a n00b trying a distro for the first time instead of someone who has the whole system hard-coded in their brain - outside your normal box. Don't you think the first thing they'll think of is typing the word font or fonts into a search box? It's exactly what I would do, unless the word fonts was already staring me in the face. > Or issue: > yum groupinfo Fonts Sweet, but how many n00bs you think are going to know about it within a reasonable time after installation? > Just a matter of comps if the category includes non-font stuff. I don't understand your statement "matter of comps". -- "Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry." Ephesians 4:26 NIV Team OS/2 ** Reg.
