Hi,

I updated to XFree 4.3 and have some trouble with the fonts:
problem: fc-cache hangs in the cyrillic font-dir
solution: I removed the cyrillic fonts (don't need them)
problem: the text in certain widget sets does not show up, instead the 
buttons become _very_ wide (about 10 screens)
solution: ?
problem: although I can preview the misc-fixed fonts with xfontsel, they 
are invisible in KDE (e.g. konsole).
solution: ?

Does anybody have an idea?
When you upgrade to XFree86 you also upgrade Xft, so you need to rebuild Qt with the new version 
of Xft.

It is also possible that you will need to delete all files: font.cache* and run: fc-cache again.

The fonts probably don't show up in the Konsole because: fc-cache didn't find them.

KDE installs three fonts in: $KDEDIR/share/fonts/.  One of these is 9x15.pcf.gz which is used 
in Konsole.  If this isn't: /usr/share/fonts/, move the fonts there and replace the directory: 
$KDEDIR/share/fonts/ with a link.  If: pc-cache doesn't find them, UnGzip the three fonts.

When you run: pc-cache -v what does it show for: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/.  If it 
doesn't find the fonts, the problem is a bit obscure.  I found that: fc-cache doesn't find the 
fonts on install and it doesn't find them unless I have PanGo for GNOME-2.2 installed.

Re: [Fonts] fonts problem after 4.3 update

2003-03-16 Thread Michael Felsberg
The hint to rebuild Qt did work. Actually, I downloaded XFree86 4.3 from 
the SuSE ftp. By end of last week, I found a 'bugfix' on the same page, 
providing new qt libs built in that way. However, I wonder why it took a 
whole week until SuSE realized that there was an elementary problem with 
their update ...

I will check for the /usr/share/fonts/ anyway. Thanks a lot.

Michael
