Hi.
As one of the weekly reviews said, "snapshot 20151123 changed fonts for openSUSE. The terminal font changed to Adobe Code Pro and Roboto was also added as the default font."
I've just installed Tumbleweed and these fonts look quite bad from my point of view (very thick, I like fonts sharp), so I'd like to leave it as it was before the change. What are the files where the default fonts are set? And what were the previous values?
Note that I have tried to correct the appearance by using YaST's fonts module and Plasma fonts settings without success. For Plasma I've explicitly set the font to one more appealing to me (instead of the generics sans serif and monospace), but other applications doesn't seems to take the change (I tried closing the session and even rebooting the computer).
I am not sure about the previous selection of fonts but I can recommend the "Liberation Sans" font as it is quite narrow and sharp. For monospace I can definitely recommend "Terminus". It is a bitmap font, i.e. no anti-aliasing and blurring when properly configured. Install package "terminus-bitmap-fonts" for this. Depending on the application and the framework it uses you have to adjust the corresponding framework font settings. Qt/KDE based applications can be set with "systemsettings5", which you already did. gtk/gnome applications can be set from within gnome or more easily if you don't want to install or start gnome with a gtk settings app. I can recommend "lxappearance" from the package with the same name. Light on dependencies. Depending on the terminal emulator you use you might need to also set the console font. I have: $ grep -i terminus .X* .Xdefaults:!Rxvt*font: xft:terminus:size=8 .Xdefaults:!aterm*font: -*-terminus-*-*-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-* .Xdefaults:!aterm*boldFont: -*-terminus-*-*-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Regards, Oliver -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
