| Hi Dirk,
| Sorry for the delay. Again. I was busy, then it slipped my mind.
| I checked the fonts.conf and local.conf and they seem okay. I installed
| Ubuntu 5.04 amd64 on another machine and saw no problems with R. I copied
| my /etc/fonts configuration to it and wasn't able to reproduce the problem.
| I copied the original Ubuntu configuration to my machine and R gave me the

| obviously seem specific to our setup.
| I'll look into building R with debugging symbols to check on the
| R_XLoadQueryFontSet function.
Sounds good, and thanks for your help on it. I'll keep the report open til we
get some resolution either way.
Regards, Dirk
