Some more useful info from mattdm -- Did you install AbiWord? I had this problem too. AbiWord installs some REAALLLLY ugly fonts that it claims are Times New Roman, Arial, and Courier New. I use the genuine Monotype fonts by those names (left over from the Windows95 installation that used to be on this machine) and have Netscape configured to look for them. However, the AbiWord fonts get in the way and make everything look nasty. Solution: remove the AbiWord entry from /etc/X11/fs/config. -- Assigning to abiword; that's where any fix will have to be (changing the names of the fonts, for example.) |
