here's what i came up with, does anything seem awry? the extra/duplicate files in /usr/local/lib don't seem to be an issue, b/c when i move those libfontconfig files and the /usr/local/lib/freetype directory and restart X, i get the same results. thx.

Disregard libXft.so.1 which comes with X, that's OK. OpenOffice also comes with its own libfreetype.so.6, I usually preload my own in the swriter script. Anyway, get back to us with anything suspicious. -- Ciprian Popovici _____________________________________________________________ Thank you for choosing LinuxQuestions. http://www.linuxquestions.org
