I found I have applesystemfonts installed on my TiBook, so I installed mozilla-browser-xft2 there as well, and...I have fonts, found a very usable one (Kai) for Serif too. But I probably don't have all the fonts I should have, so I think I have still missed setting up something to do with my fonts under X.
No matter, it works. Sort of. Probably there are also bugs in mozilla's font handling too, particularly the rather random ways the menu fonts change when you change the font config options. It _is_ beta software, of course, but I don't think I understand the problems well enough to report any bugs for the moment. many thanks for all the suggestions! cheers, -- Viv On Thu, 18 Sep 2003, Alexander K.
