ralphy, first I appreciate your great work, I am enjoying piCoreplayer
with touchpanel, connecting JBL Pebbles USB speaker.
I could assemble all those in one hour or so.

Now, I would like to have suggestions from linux experts on following
topic.
I have considerable number of flac song files tagged in Japanese
characters, which default font cannot display correctly.
I wonder how I can replace FreeSans with another license-free TrueType
font supporting Japanese, such as MigMix or ipagp, to display tag
information on the screen.

Needless to say rebuilding image is a solution, but I would like to
avoid re-makefile and overwrite default font with another.

As far as I investigated at version 2.0, binaries of default TTF are
located as:

Code:
--------------------
    /tmp/tcloop/jivelite/opt/jivelite/share/jive/fonts/FreeSans.ttf
  /tmp/tcloop/jivelite/opt/jivelite/share/jive/fonts/FreeSansBold.ttf
--------------------


...and links for font are:

Code:
--------------------
    /opt/jivelite/share/jive/fonts/FreeSans.ttf
  /opt/jivelite/share/jive/fonts/FreeSansBold.ttf
--------------------

However, the file system is read-only after boot-up, so I was not
successful to overwrite those files even after 'sudo su'.

I also tried this way:
I saved my favorite font in accessible directory

Code:
--------------------
    /mnt/mmcblk0p2/tce/optional/
--------------------

and tried to copy from there to the target, either in bootlocal.sh or
piCoreplayer command-line with following statement.


Code:
--------------------
    sudo cp -f /mnt/mmcblk0p2/tce/optional/ipagp.ttf 
/opt/jivelite/share/jive/fonts/FreeSans.ttf
  sudo cp -f /mnt/mmcblk0p2/tce/optional/ipagp.ttf 
/opt/jivelite/share/jive/fonts/FreeSansBold.ttf
--------------------


Neither way works to me.  It there any easy way to replace or overwrite
font?

Thank you,
