I have been reading the threads on fonts on this list. My problem seems
similar, yet different. Star Office doesn't find many of the standard fonts,
including

Please verify your fontpath settings

Hi,

it says
something about a bad superblock and trying to mount a logical drive.
I'm stumped on how to remedy this. I've tried both ho
