Hi,
The problem is that the TTF fonts are not running in the Xserver. Somehow KDE has a way of installing and using the TTF fonts without them being available in the Xserver. To prove this run 'xfontsel' and I doubt there will be any TTF's shown. Don't ask why , but I spent about a week trying to nut it out about two months ago and posted my little howto here.
All commands must be run as root.
1) Change to where the fonts are. cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype
2) Determine if there are any files been created for the scaling of the ttf's. ls -l fonts.s*
3) Remove all these files. rm fonts.s*
4) Create a new font scale file. ttmkfdir | sed s/^[0-9]*// > fonts.scale.myfonts
5) Now run SuSEconfig.fonts /sbin/conf.d/SuSEconfig.fonts
6) Run xset to reread the font paths xset fp rehash
You should be able to see the fonts with xfontsel
Hi, All I did was move the fonts to the truetype directory and redid the .scale file. Then the fonts worked. This is silly!!! I was able to make a directory and put the fonts there and make the scale file. Then edit the XF86Config to point to that directory. Weird. It worked in 8.0 this way. Oh well, I now have my fonts! :-) Thanks all who helped me with this! Marshall "Nothing is impossible, We just do not have all the anwsers to make the impossible, possible."
