RPMS for MS fonts are provided via this site: http://avi.alkalay.net/software/msfonts/ The developer looks for reports that acknowledge that the rpms work on SuSE. Perhaps James can compare his packages with the ones provided by the site mentioned above?
My packages won't actually include the packages themselves, they'll do the same as the script that SuSE used to provide did. You'll be presented with the EULA for the fonts and asked if you accept it, if you do, it will download the fonts (although now from corefonts.sf.net) and it'll install them. It'll then use the SuSEconfig fonts module to set them up for X. The funny thing is that I'd installed these fonts manually, configured the fonts.scale and fonts.dir etc etc many times, but every time I ran SuSEconfig, it nuked the config, unless I did it with this script - weird no? -- James Ogley, Webmaster, Rubber Turnip james@rubberturnip.org.uk http://www.rubberturnip.org.uk Jabber: riggwelter@myjabber.net Using Free Software since 1994, running GNU/Linux (SuSE 8.1).
