That font comes from font-misc- misc (ftp://ftp.x.org/pub/individual/font/font-misc- misc-1.0.0.tar.bz2) which has nothing to do with fontconfig (and doesn't install any fontconfig files). The only package installing anything in fonts/conf.d is fontconfig, and we're using the defaults: 20-fix-globaladvance.conf 30-urw-aliases.conf 49-sansserif.conf 60- latin.conf 69-unifont.conf README 20-unhint-small-vera.conf 40-nonlatin.conf 50-user.conf 65- fonts-persian.conf 80-delicious.conf 30-metric-aliases.conf 45-latin.conf 51-local.conf 65- nonlatin.conf 90-synthetic.conf > However, the bug with the garbled output remains regardless. > That's pretty much all I can say. Well the garbled output occurs identically when using a completely different X server (Xorg 1.6.x on fedora ppc versus XQuartz 1.4.x on darwin x86), so it doesn't seem like a specific X-server driver issue to me... perhaps it's a bug in cairo or freetype, but not in the X server or its associated drivers. But still... how is it that the Regular style is not being preferred? _______________________________________________ Fontconfig mailing list Fontconfig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fontconfig
