Hi, Stijn Hoop wrote:
If you want to install it as a system font, you should copy the font into a system directory as root and then run 'fc-cache -fv' as root. You should not change the mode of the /var/cache/fontconfig directory. If you want to install the font for your own use, you should put it in the .fonts subdirectory of your homedirectory, and then run 'fc-cache -fv' as your own user. You should still not change the mode of the /var/cache/fontconfig directory. Although the fc-cache utility might complain a bit, it's not an error, and your font should still work.
Now, why didn't fc-cache cache fonts and wasn't I able to use new fonts without changing permission? Thanks, Makoto
