I had a similar problem, but was able to fix it with the following configuration: char font[] = "xos4 Terminus:pixelsize=16:antialias=true:autohint=true:lang=ru"; The important part is to use "xos4 Terminus" instead of just "Terminus". It's related to a fontconfig update a couple of months ago. Maybe that's your problem. Patrick
