Translation: I've tried every f'n font I can think of, and can't open any of them. Probably the font(s) are there and fine. Most likely causes are a nearly full filesystem or permissions on /tmp are wrong. Either will cause xfs to fail, and no fonts are then available to the system, even 'fixed'. -- Hal Burgiss -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
