Which *should* have been installed as part of the post install system
update in Suse.

And so they were, but just to make sure, I updated them and restarted my server. No change.

The Titivillus theme uses mostly Trebuchet MS, with a little Arial here and there. The fonts I see in the mythfrontend display are unmistakably Trebuchet and Arial, so it isn't substituting something else. They're just too big.

I think I'll try changing the fonts to something more svelte and see whether I can squeeze in a bit more text without sacrificing too much readability. In the meantime, thanks for your help!
