RE: [expert] fonts doofy after using drakfont
I've seen something similar before with Mandrake 7.2. Try this 1) Make a backup copy of your .kde directory 2) Delete your .kde directory 3) Restart KDE You should then have all of the defaults set correctly and you can set your choices as you wish. Note that all of your other settings that you have set for KDE will also be lost. This seems like a stupid hack, but it did work. David -Original Message- From: Praedor Tempus [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, May 24, 2001 1:16 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [expert] fonts doofy after using drakfont I just upgraded my laptop system to Mandrake 8.0 from 7.2. All was well until I used drakfont to install all the windoze fonts. Since doing that, all my kde fonts are italic. I try to alter this from the fonts entry in kcontrol but these entries all still show the "correct" helvetica font, normal (NOT italic) settings. If I try to reset all this by manually selecting helvetica again I find that I cannot find helvetica. It has suddenly vanished from my system, so it seems. All I have to choose from are windoze fonts. How do I get helvetica back? How do I get rid of this damnable italics (part of the same problem)?
