2.4 font problems...

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

 



I just built gnome2.4 from source into RPMS, and I am having a problem that I
can't track down.

I was able to get it going, but my control-panel RPM was missing several libs
(/usr/lib/bonobo and /usr/lib/window-manager). Once I repackaged this, and
installed it I seemed to have lost the default fonts! Literally, the fonts
are gone or are so small they appear to be only pixels. Chances are that these
were not working before, but when the control-panel started working it loaded
fonts that for some reason were not happy.

Without fonts I pull up gnome-font-properties and it seems that the only fonts 
that are working are:

   console
   fangsong ti
   fixed
   LucidaTyperwriter
   MiscFixed

Which are all bitmap fonts (/usr/share/fonts/bitmap-fonts/).

Xfs is running, and aimed at good directories with fonts.cache-1 and font.dirs 
and has no errors in syslog.

/etc/gnome/fonts/fontmap2 also is aimed at real fonts.

Of course I already tried removing all config files in ~, but that did not
help...

Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated!

THANKS!

BTW, I signed up to the list yesterday but have not recieved anything yet.
Please CC me directly to make sure that I get it (too many spam filters are
not always a good thing ;).
