Debian Lenny ugly fonts
i am using Debian Lenny and it has really ugly fonts. both in Iceweasel and in Windowmaker.
any solution ? |
Install graphics card drivers. Or are you saying they are "boring".
|
Iceweasel is Firefox, about a third of the way down the page link below is a section called "Font & Colors".

i am not a newbie and hence i know what is the name of the driver of the graphics card i have and i have configured X with that driver. on BLAG(a Fedora based distro which uses Free Softwares only), there is no problem like that. on Arch, i solved the problem after installing "ttf-msfonts" (non-free) and on CRUX, i do not install those "ms-ttf" fonts because i do not have problem there. do not know what is the issue with Debian. {NOTE:I do not like non-free content on my system, hence i do not install "ttf-msfonts" on my system anymore . i do not even use, Flash, Java and mp3. i use Vorbis and Theroa"} |

you got rid of it because it was easy to work with?

I didn't find the Redhat fonts to be superior to the free combination of DejaVu and LinuxLibertine. Maybe once they have complete hinting and anti-alias components. The only MS Font I really use is Tahoma, and it doesn't come with msttcorefonts anyway.

Being a very crappy web developer, I like that idea (It would make things a lot easier). I agree they're not really perfect (yet) though (but it's a start). |

this is what they want me to accept: http://www.java.com/en/download/license.jsp it does not look like GPL. look at the RESTRICTIONS section, it does not even come close to BSD/MIT or any OSI approved license. |
