[Bug 456547] Re: fonts not displayed in certain apps

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  after upgrading intrepid->jaunty->intrepid, i had serious font problems
  on my thinkpad x31 (radeon mobility M6 LY), such that many paplications
  (openoffice, emacs, and others) didn't display fonts at all when run
  under non-gnome desktops.  i've now wiped the drive and installed karmic
  clean; now the problem is partly fixed, but certain programs won't
  display fonts at all, even when run undergnome.  the ost crippling of
  these for me is the goggles music manager, which uses the libfox1.6
  toolkit.  But the same problem is evident in the transient system
  messages (e.g. nm-applet's connected/disconnected messages, evolution's
  'you have mail' bubbles).
  
  I'd love to help track this bug down but i'm not sure where to start.
  please let me know what i might do to help.  thanks,
  
  matt
