Re: True Type font server gives me weird default font
Ya, I ran into this also. I believe I fixed it by uninstalling xfs and
re-installing it. I'm not really sure what causes it or why what I did
fixed it. If that doesn't work, try uninstalling and re-installing the
xfs anf xfstt packages. Wish I could be more helpful, but I kinda
stumbled through getting it to work correctly.
