I did, my .gtkrc now looks like:# -- THEME AUTO-WRITTEN DO NOT EDIT
include "/usr/share/themes/Raleigh/gtk/gtkrc"
include "/etc/gtk/gtkrc.iso885915"
style "user-font"
{
font="-adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal-*-12-*-*-*-p-*-iso8859-1"
}
widget_class "*" style "user-font"
include "/home/nl31605/.gtkrc.mine"
# -- THEME AUTO-WRITTEN DO NOT EDIT
I then logged out, restarted X, logged back in; nothing changed :-(
I also tried to include gtkrc.iso-88592, with lucidux font for iso8859-2,
didn't work either.
I think what I now got is some kind of fixed, 2-bit font...
It's one big blurry puzzle right now...
Thanks, John.
