 |
|
I was following the tutorial at https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=111387&highlight=japanese+fontconfig and I got all the way to the end until I realized I was having that problem listed in the "Errors" section:
So I did just that. After waiting a short while for fontconfig to emerge, I opened firefox and saw that all my fonts for the actual GUI (such as File, Edit, View, Go, etc...) are big and ugly. Also every other GUI now uses this same font such as GAIM and X-irc. I tried to unmerge fontconfig but firefox didn't even open at that point so I re-emerged and tried looking for a solution on the forums but have found nothing.
Here is a screencap of what it looks like:

Any help would be appreciated, it's not vital but I hate having to use apps with big fonts...which is also why I chose fluxbox as wm  |

Problem solved.
These are the steps to fix this problem (worked for me @ least):
| Code: | | ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge corefonts |
then follow the instructions once it's finished emerging. It should tell you to edit either your xorg or xf86config file depending on what you're using, and also to edit another file.
Once you're done, log out of X punch in
Peace |
