on the adventure of installing texlive (not bad actually). I'm running gentoo linux on my notebook (IBM Lenovo T60) too. Once I also installed the immense package of extra fonts, phonetic worked and I had my inverted iota. What immense package of fonts do you mean? I would like to have some more

Hi all. I'm having trouble figuring out how to make the definite description symbol (which is an inverted Greek iota). There seem to be two ways to do this, both of which fail for me. One is to use graphicx package and the rotatebox command. But this does not seem to work inside math equations
