KDE 3.0.4 ate my fonts

["R. Boyce" <rb330@cam.ac.uk>]

Hi all,

I have a minor but very annoying problem: I'm running woody, and until
recently I had KDE 3.0.0 running perfectly on it (mostly due to advice
gleaned from this very list). Yesterday I upgraded to KDE 3.0.4 by putting
deb http://download.uk.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/latest/Debian/woody ./ in my
apt sources and installing all updated packages.

Everything's working fine except my TrueType fonts - they are all
installed fine according to Control Center -> System -> Font Installer,
but are not found in Control Center -> Look & Feel -> Fonts. Mozilla can
find the fonts and anti-aliases them as it should, but KDE it seems
cannot. My 3.0.0 had lovely anti-aliased TrueType fonts and I want them
back!

Anyone else had this problem and can offer some advice?

Thanks in advance,
