Replace /etc/fonts/fonts.conf with the defaults as supplied by the fontconfig package (guess you'll find a .pacnew there or something like that). The fontconfig cache has changed from 2.3 -> 2.4, there's a global cache in /var/cache/fontconfig nowadays. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
