Hello, "xorg-x11-fonts-100dpi" doesn't appear to be an available package from within YaST, but "xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi" is installed. Here's some useful info: ============================================================ host8:~ # rpm -qa | grep -i font | sort agfa-fonts-2003.03.19-15 efont-unicode-0.4.2-6 fontconfig-2.3.2.20050721-10 fontconfig-32bit-2.3.2.20050721-10 fontconfig-devel-2.3.2.20050721-10 fonts-config-20041001-9 ghostscript-fonts-other-8.15rc1-29 ghostscript-fonts-std-8.15rc1-29 xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi-6.8.2-100 xorg-x11-fonts-scalable-6.8.2-100 host8:~ # ============================================================ And just for comparison, here is the same command executed on a machine that was built manually from DVD: ============================================================ host3:~ # rpm -qa | grep -i font | sort agfa-fonts-2003.03.19-15 efont-unicode-0.4.2-6 fontconfig-2.3.2.20050721-10 fontconfig-32bit-2.3.2.20050721-10 fontconfig-devel-2.3.2.20050721-10 fonts-config-20041001-9 free-ttf-fonts-1.0-161 ghostscript-fonts-other-8.15rc1-29 ghostscript-fonts-std-8.15rc1-29 xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi-6.8.2-100 xorg-x11-fonts-scalable-6.8.2-100 host3:~ # ============================================================ "Ah", you may say, "install the 'free-ttf-fonts' package!", but I've tried this, and it doesn't help. I've even tried rebooting just in case there's some font server somewhere that needs restarting, and emacs still loads up with rectangle characters.

As I said, emacs works fine if I install manually.
Am I simply missing some packages, or has something more serious happened here?
Not sure if this is the problem but do you have xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi and/or xorg-x11-fonts-100dpi installed?
