Should I change that permission also? Thanks On Sunday, October 3, 2004, at 11:28 AM, Brian O'Keefe wrote:
Martin,
I ran xfontsel and found that X11 is not seeing the fonts and in qtconfig, all the listed fonts are in the same calligraphic style-no difference at all except that clearlyu, clean and american typewriter show up as the actual typeface. I changed the settings in qtconfig to all clearlyu so at least I can read the icons and menus.
Any more ideas? I truly appreciate the time and help.
Yours in debt,
Brian

With all the complicated font tools like freetype and fontconfig, used by abiword and the other gnome and kde programs, I wouldn't know how to start debugging this. Just some thoughts:
You could look with a basic X11 utility like "xfontsel" whether X11 is seeing your fonts.
For the appearance of kde windows, you could run the "qtconfig" program.
For the appearance of programs like abiword that use gtk, you could create a file ".gtkrc-2.0" in your home directory containing one line with something like
gtk-font-name = "geneva 12"
(At least this is the file name and the syntax on Panther; I can't check this for Jaguar now).
[]I'll try the font fix. Abiword does not start, however but gives: [Brian-OKeefes-Computer:~] brianokeefe% abiword
/sw/bin/abiword: line 14: 16154 Illegal instruction
Sorry, I hadn't read your original message completely.
Do you get a crash log? Something like ~/Library/Logs/Crashreporter/abiwordx.log? You are on 10.2.6, though, and these crash logs became more useful after 10.3.2.
