Realplayer works fine but it is the only one app with this problem. This may not be entirely relevant to your problem, but it's worth a check. The fonts provided by the corefonts package are _badly_ corrupted, and largely out-dated (it would even be worth to file a bug). For example, if you make any GTK+ application use them (like any Xfce module or emelFM2), it will display boxes instead of text. So, check to make sure that Realplayer doesn't use Arial or something similar. If it does, get your hands on the MS fonts from an existing Windows installation, install them manually, remove corefonts and check that the paths conform in xorg.conf and the xfs config file (if you use the latter).

Re: [gentoo-user] A week of struggle
cut not exactly sure, but I'd look under menuconfig- Device Drivers- Graphics support. In particular: * VESA VGA graphics support VESA driver type (vesafb) (use vesafb-tng on 32-bit) Console display driver support --- [*] Video mode selection support (you already have this i think) * Framebuffer Console support (you probably have this already) No, I had not these! Now it works. 2 (this is really incredible) fonts disappeared on the Realplayer - Graphics support window! Instead of chars . . . boxes. i.e. file = 4 boxes,settings = 7 boxes, etc ?? Realplayer works fine but it is the only one app with this problem. I had the same problem with firefox-bin not so long ago. I created a forum thread about it: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-4185590.html#4185590 Very usefull link. don't know if it'll help or not. It helped!!

[gentoo-user] A week of struggle
Hi all, as the subject says! ;-) Now my system should be updated. gcc, world and, to-day, the kernel. Well, everything seems to work fine . . . but: 1 among the boot options I had vga=0x317. Now this option gives me: You passed an undefined mode number. Press RETURN to see video modes available, SPACE to continue or wait 30 secs. Video adapter: VESA VGA Mode: COLSxROWS: 0 0F00 80 x 25 1 0F01 80 x 50 2 0F02 80 x 43 3 0F03 80 x 28 4 0F05 80 x 30 5 0F06 80 x 34 6 0F07 80 x 60 Why this? What have I forgotten in kernel configuration? 2 (this is really incredible) fonts disappeared on the Realplayer window! Instead of chars . . . boxes. i.e. file = 4 boxes, settings = 7 boxes, etc ??
