Hey, thanks, restarting xfs at least fixed part of the problem, I can see black text again, but I use Sylpheed for my mail proggy, and everytime I recieve Mail, the mailbox the mail is recieved into in the tree list turns red, and THAT text is still the little boxes, how do I tell GTK what font, locale, and/or encoding to use as a default?
