Yep. I changed the order of the fonts in fs/config, though (like I did in 5.3:
first 100dpi:unscaled, then 75dpi:unscaled then misc:unscaled asf.).
Adding the scaled misc fonts to the font path helped Netscape browser somewhat with
Java
sites, but it's not the browser that crashes most often, but Mail and -
which I *never* experienced with 4.08 - Composer (which hurts me most: mutt
kicks ass as a mail client, w3m as a browser, but what should I use to draft
web pages? Looks like I really have to write the MA pages from the scratch by hand
:-().
Ok. I will try a tarball first. If that doesn't work, I will turn off xfs.
Regards and thanks
