I change the resolution to something else, say 85, then close the font windows, then open again and change Resolution back to "86" then close the font windows and close evolution and open it again, i get evolution in the nice fonts i expect. My assumption is that evolution (or possibly all of gnome stuff?) is not reading the font properties properly... until i make some changes and apply. Question: Does anyone know if there is a font-start program i need to run at startup or if i can do anything in evo to tell it to use the correct fonts without all the rigmaroll mentioned above. simran. _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
