The default fontconfig configuration assumes fonts under /usr/X11R6. If you haven't installed Xorg or XFree86 there, then you probably want to adjust it to use the fonts in /usr/openwin - to do this at build time, simply specify these options when you run the configure script: --with-default-fonts=/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts --with-add-fonts=/usr/openwin/lib/locale You could also just edit fonts.conf to include these lines: <dir>/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts</dir> <dir>/usr/openwin/lib/locale</dir> -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersmith@xxxxxxx Sun Microsystems, Inc. - X Window System Engineering Micha Shepher wrote: > Dear fontconfig. > > I am building gnome for solaris with the specs > System = SunOS > Node = wsasd154 > Release = 5.8 > KernelID = Generic_108528-13 > Machine = sun4u > BusType = <unknown> > Serial = <unknown> > Users = <unknown> > OEM# = 0 > Origin# = 1 > NumCPU = 1 > > So far I built fontconfig, and GTK and thought everything was fine. > Now that GTK is built, fontconfig fails to find the fonts in the system. > > Every app I run using GTK would now say: > > No fonts found; this probably means that the fontconfig > library is not correctly configured.
