I've already do that; the problem is that playing around with the xfs configuration (that of course I've), only changes the order in which the fonts are loaded. That way, I can't get my Mozilla fonts to be just-right. That's why I want to configure the fonts used by Mozilla by hand; but not only the ones in the Preferences dialog, also the ones in the GUI and in the pages (the instructions from http://www.mozilla.org/unix/customizing.htm haven't worked for me as I want, specially with the input boxes, like the one that appear in Google).

Re: [gentoo-user] Some misc stuff
Hi Canek, 1. I haven't used gnome for ages and I don't know the answer to that. 2. If you use xfs (X font server), did you change the catalog of font directories in the file/etc/X11/fs/config? After changing that execute 'fc-cache -f' and you should be ok. 3. To get the system to shutdown you need to have apm support compiled as a module or even better compiled in the kernel. Hope that helps!

[gentoo-user] Some misc stuff
Hi; all my Gentoo systems (desktop Athlon 1.3 Ghz, "server" Pentium 166 Mhz, and laptop Pentium IV 1.8 Ghz), are near perfection. Really; they work so good I want to cry of joy. This unbelievable heaven it's just not perfect because some little annoying things: 1. In both my Gnome setups, I've a submenu in the Applications menu that says "KDE Menu" (I've KDE for some apps). The icon in the menu is a page with a red cross (I assume that the icon is missing/not found). I want to change that for a) remove it or b) set the icon. (I know this is almost ridiculous, but really the system is near perfection). 2. First time I install Gentoo, I've BEAUTIFUL fonts in Mozilla (really, the guys at the work with Windows or Mac OS X where like "whoa!"). Then (I think it was when XFree 4.0.3 was marked stable), I loose those fonts (along with my japanese fonts; I surf a lot of japanese sites). Now I manually install a lot of fonts, and Mozilla it's Ok, but not perfect. So, anyone knows how to configure ALL the fonts in Mozilla (not only the GUI, I mean, ALL the fonts)? 3. My Athlon no longer shutdowns. When I halt the machine, the console gets a "power off" message, and stays there. I don't know why this happen; I don't remember recompiling my kernel, and it used to work. This is the most annoying thinh, because I can't shut down the machine by a script or remotely. Any help with these issues will be great. Thanks!
