The package xorg-x11-fonts-core is indeed installed.
Did you check this on the machine where the Xserver is running - in case you run across the network?
I ran the "xlsfonts | grep ..." command over ssh, and it gave positive results then. Now I'm finally on the machine in question directly. In the meantime the machine had some installations, including that of xfd, and was rebooted. Let's see now the results of all the commands from a fresh uxterm; they are somewhat different (don't ask me why): [ user@host:~> sudo zypper info xorg-x11-fonts-core | egrep "(Version:)|(Installed:)" Version: 7.6-31.6 Installed: Yes user@host:~> xlsfonts | grep misc-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-18-120-100-100-c-90-iso10646-1 user@host:~> xfd -fn -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--18-120-100-100-c-90-iso10646-1 Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion Warning: Cannot convert string "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--18-120-100-100-c-90-iso10646-1" to type FontStruct xfd: no font to display user@host:~> ] When you enter characters from another alphabet via keyboard (say, cyrillic) into the uxterm, you get a blank space pro character. That is, entering "йцукен" from the keyboard gives 6 spaces. However, you can select these spaces with a mouse and copy them elsewhere, say, into a gedit, where you do see the originally typed "йцукен". When you start a gnome konsole, you do see every cyrillic character that you enter in the konsole directly. If I can do some further debugging, please tell me so. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
