Hello, Thanks for the replies I got :-)
I have fixed the problem. I don't know exectly what caused this problem, but after experimenting with some setups I suddently got readable fonts. Sorry for not being more specific in my initial post about this subject, but I'm very new to Fvwm.
Regards /Peter P.s. Apparently I forgot to write a subject in my initial post, sorry ;-)

And this is probably not an FVWM problem. By "unreadable" do you mean tiny or bad quality? What is the font you use for menus (search for "MenuStyle * Font" line)? What is the locale you use (run 'locale' from a shell)? Do you have good fonts installed (at least XFree86-100dpi-fonts)? Does your font server (xfs) function properly? How other apps show texts? If you speak about the Setup95 configuration, for menus it uses font "-*-times-medium-r-*-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*", you may test it by running: xterm -g 40x10 -fn '-*-times-medium-r-*-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*' Of course it is not a monospace font, so xterm does not look ok with it. But at least it should be pretty readable. Regards, Mikhael.
