Ciao, I am running KDE1.1 on a SuSE6.0 with a 2.0.36 kernel, pentium 200MMx 64 MB RAM. I have xfstt installed from the rpm I made (http://adriatico.prisma.rm.cnr.it/~maurizio). There are 334 TrueType fonts indexed on /usr/ttfonts which is a soft link to /mnt/msdos/windows/fonts. On the file fonts.dir are listed only 145 fonts belonging to the families: arial, comic, courier, futura, human521,impact,times,verdana,wingding. Nevertheless,all the fonts are correctely displaied on Gimp, Netscape, or on the font selection menu in any of the KDE applications. I have noticed that the first time I open kmail or an html document with kfm, they takes a long time before displaying the document. Then, they behaves normally. If I uninstall xfstt, this sympthom disappears. Could you please do a little test and tell me if you have the same behaving? In the xfstt FAQ there is a note on a possible buffer overruns of some applications which cannot handle correctly the "huge number of fonts, proportional and scalable fonts and the big glyph sizes Xfstt can provide". I sent a mail to Stefan Taferner - the author of kmail - about this problem and he told me: "...I have xfstt running without problems. Seems that you have another problem here..." Before dismissing xfstt and try xfsft (which requires a bit more work than xfstt to compile), I would like to receive your feed-back. I got the KDE1.1 rpms from: sunsite.cnlab-switch.ch I had not such a problem with KDE1.0 SuSE5.3 kernel 2.0.35 and the same amount of tt fonts.
