small fonts after upgrade from F7 to F9

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I recently upgraded a machine from F7 to F9, and have two font problems. First, emacs can't find the font it wants, and exits with the message:

No fonts match `-adobe-courier-medium-r-*-*-12-120-75-75-*-*-*-*'

Second, the system font seems to be much smaller than before.

I tried creating a new user, and had the same problems logged in as that user, so I don't think it's a problem with config files in my home directory.

I did a fresh install of Fedora 9 in a virtual machine, and it does not show this problem. Comparison screen shots can be seen at:

I compared the list of RPM packages with 'font' in the title installed on the upgraded machine vs. the fresh install, and didn't see any obvious omissions.

I'd rather not do a fresh install on the machine in question because I don't feel like reconfiguring the web sserver, DNS server, mail server, etc., if I can avoid it.

Any suggestions as to what might be missing or configured incorrectly?

Thanks!
Eric
