[Bug 477438] Re: gdm login fonts are unreadable, display rectangles not chars

2009-12-20 Thread Mariuccio
[SOLVED]

Looking better to my log file, I noticed I got the error always related to 
"Bitstream" font.
I removed Vera*.ttf file from my /usr/share/fonts/windows directory and I ran 
the commands suggested by Eduard

sudo dpkg-reconfigure libcairo2 libpango1.0-common
sudo fc-cache -fs
sudo update-pangox-aliases

Restart GDM and now it works!! (at least for me)

[Bug 477438] Re: gdm login fonts are unreadable, display rectangles not chars

2009-12-19 Thread Mariuccio
Hello there,
I have upgraded yesterday my Ubuntu from 9.04 to 9.10 and I got the same 
problem. The gdm screen shows rectangles instead normal characters. 
I executed the commands suggested by Eduard but they didn't solve the problem.

Any help is appreciated.
Regards,
Mario
