Right now my local.conf makes no reference to Luxi fonts. Looking at my /etc/fonts.config file, I notice that the Vera fonts are listed first, in the Sans, Sans Serif, and Mono sections, so where is the config file that makes the system use the Luxi fonts (assuming I'm right that they are the system defaults) even though they are lower in the list? And if the font list is not read from top to bottom, how is it read? I'll take a look at another distribution to see what the differences are, maybe that will help. Here is the thread I started the other day. I'd be interested to know if you've noticed any of the same issues. http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2005-February/msg07075.html Thanks, -P
