Woot site needs more fonts to display correctly
Another Web site not rendering properly:
http://deals.woot.com/sellout
Here is the fix from the Puppy Linux Forum.
(It worked on my Netbook with Puppy Linux Floppy 005
and SM 2.0.8 and on my Notebook Puppy Linux Lucid 5.1.1
with SM 2.0.8)
+++
#!/bin/sh
fonts_url=http://avi.alkalay.net/software/webcore-fonts/webcore-fonts-3.0.tar.gz;
DISPAY=:0.0 rxvt -e bash -c
echo Please wait...
echo
wget $fonts_url
tar -xf webcore-fonts-3.0.tar.gz
mkdir /root/.fonts
cp webcore-fonts/fonts/* /root/.fonts
rm -r webcore-fonts
rm webcore-fonts-3.0.tar.gz
echo
echo
echo Finished downloading and installing the fonts...
echo
echo
sleep 60
Someone noted that in some cases this change is required:
DISPAY=:0.0 rxvt -e bash -c
should be
DISPAY=:0.0 rxvt -e bash -c

Re: Woot site needs more fonts to display correctly
I believe that these fonts are being added to SM via
this process, am I misunderstanding that?

Thanks for explaining that! It all kinda runs together for me
sometimes.
Sorry about the top-posting here. I am on over 100 lists and
this is the only one that requires bottom-posting ... it's like
