To make it persist between sessions, you need to do one more thing: insert into your ~/.xinitrc file the line
This has been discussed in a concurrent thread - the trouble I've had with this solution(which does indeed work) is that the gnome daemon fights with the KDE daemon, and can give you troublesome results. For instance, I never use screensavers - after this screensavers suddenly started running. I don't have gnome fully installed, thus I can configure this off. Same for key-repeats - I think you'll find gnome is now controlling that instead of KDE. For those of us with very specific keyboard settings, this isn't a very good scenario.
My question is why the gtk engine isn't handling this sort of stuff
I wonder if there's some way to start up gnome-settings-daemon and let it run long enough to set the fonts, and then turn it off. I am thinking about that because if you don't run the daemon and set the fonts through the control center, they last for the rest of the session, though not longer. properly
in KDE. That's what it's designed to do!
I wonder if the gtk engine wizards are even aware of the Firefox problem. Paul
