This is a multi-part message in MIME format ---------=_639F1A33.18474B64 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-2" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Yes, I have read this. And also used. I cannot remember why I disabled it after the problems began. The ~/.fonts.conf is attached. It evidently affects the fonts in the sense that they are not blurred now but still I'm getting different fonts on every start - for instance, sometimes I'm getting fonts without diacritics, in all cases they differ from usual firefox/thunderbird default fonts. Unfortunately I'm not able to send a screenshot as xgrab results in a core dump and on a picture from camera it cannot be seen :-( jan ______________________________________________________________ > Od: victor.engmark@gmail.com > Komu: "Jan Zach" <zach@centrum.cz> > CC: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org > Datum: 06.05.2007 17:08 > Předmět: Re: font problems in firefox, thunderbird,.. gtk? > >On 5/6/07, Jan Zach <zach@centrum.cz> wrote: >> >> after system and ports upgrade I have problems with fonts in some apps - >> firefox, thunderbird, gthumb, liferea and so on.
