Hi,
On SL5.2 there is a missing link for the fonts to be used by JRE
1.6.0_11. The directory
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-sun-1.6.0.11/jre/lib/fonts points to
/usr/share/fonts/java which actually doesn't exist. However, the
1.5.0_16 JDK installation uses /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_16/jre/lib/fonts which
contains all the right fonts. Altering JAVA_HOME to JDK 1.5.0_16 and
launching the Java application again, it displays the fonts correctly.
The quick workaround to get it working with 1.6.0_11 is to copy the
existing JDK1.5.0_16 fonts directory under /usr/share/fonts/java.
Is there a Java fonts package missing that causes that?
Cheers,
Panos
