No fonts in kde, gnome after apt updating
I just recently ran a selective synaptic upgrade, everything except a few gnome packages that were going to replace ulb packages. I finished the upgrade in windowmaker because I was going to upgrade kde, logging into kde this morning k mail had no fonts. Konquror as well. the desktop however looked normal, it seems it's just kde apps. I tried gnome but gnome has no fonts anywhere. I ran SuSEconfig which didn't fix it. I have a edited sources.list base funktronics kde packman packman-i686 security update suser-rbos usr-local-bin wine Any ideas on how to get kde apps in kde, and gnome working again? Sorry if this has been asked but with my new job I can't read as much of the mail from this list as I used to. TIA -- E.F.Maurer Using SuSE 9.0 Pro

Upon closer inspection there are fonts they are just barely visible, think little dashes for words, Also when I went into the font selection of kmail, sans was gone. I reset it to something else but no change. I'm going to update the rest of the packages and see if that fixes it. -- E.F.Maurer Using SuSE 9.0 Pro

Same problems here and also konsole crashes at startup. At first i thought it was a kde/qt problem (because it looked like a qt problem i had with SuSE 8.1 about a year ago), so i reinstalled the most important kde/qt packages/libs from the cd's and as a precaution deleted all dcop/mcop stuff from /tmp and home directory. This didn't help, and then i noticed the same problem with gnome apps. So i reinstalled the the most important gnome and gtk apps/libs along with XF* and all font-related stuff, ran fonts-config -f, but still the same problem. Third thing i tried was to create a test user. Same problem with this "fresh" user. Starting individual apps from xterm doesn't give me any clues as to what causes this either. I'm sure it must be something i just updated but i can't pinpoint/backtrack the source of it, so if anyone has any ideas how to solve this problem, i too would be grateful!
Haven't solved it as such, but have had the same problem. Testing a bit revealed that IceWM had no problems and launching GNOME and KDE apps under IceWM displayed fonts just fine. I tried looking over the startkde script but couldn't pinpoint the problem exactly.. I suspect gnome-settings-daemon for some of this, but I'm not 100% sure... As an intermediate solution, I am now running select KDE components in IceWM (I'd like to get back to a real KDE environment, but so far my efforst have need for naught). I have been able to start these elements manually and not have my fonts ruined: kdesktop kicker Running these programs: Kopete Konsole Konqueror BUT: If I launch startkde from within IceWM, I get the same problem as before. Thus is seems that kwin is not to blame. My prime suspects: fontconfing and gnome-settings-daemon. How to solve it though, I'm not sure... /Martin. søn, 2003-11-30 kl. 02:47 skrev Marcel Broekman:

Thanks, that did it, although I had to do it a couple of times (once after each reboot (kernel update)) for some reason... man, 2004-01-12 kl. 01:38 skrev Henry Harpending:
