No, that's not it, I was using Sans 17 or something like that. A font I definitely had. > Could you show how lxappearance has written the font and font size > into your ~/.gtkrc-2.0 ? Certainly: =========================================== # DO NOT EDIT! This file will be overwritten by LXAppearance. # Any customization should be done in ~/.gtkrc-2.0.mine instead. gtk-theme-name="Simple-Green" gtk-icon-theme-name="hicolor" gtk-font-name="Sans 17" gtk-cursor-theme-size=0 gtk-toolbar-style=GTK_TOOLBAR_BOTH gtk-toolbar-icon-size=GTK_ICON_SIZE_LARGE_TOOLBAR gtk-button-images=1 gtk-menu-images=1 gtk-enable-event-sounds=1 gtk-enable-input-feedback-sounds=1 gtk-xft-antialias=1 gtk-xft-hinting=1 gtk-xft-hintstyle="hintslight" gtk-xft-rgba="rgb" include "/home/slitt/.gtkrc-2.0.mine" =========================================== The preceding works perfectly. Sad thing is, I'm almost positive I did the "gtk-font-name="Sans 17"" thing manually earlier, and it didn't affect Thunar or xchat.
