I recently upgraded my PC from the standard RH 7.0 dist to RH 7.2. Everything seemed to work OK during the upgrade.... however when I booted up KDE2.2, all my fonts were a crappy fixed-width font! When I tried to change the default font to something else in KDE, it kept defaulting to fixed-width.

Now some of my Gnome themes are also unusable - some of the fonts appear as little square boxes.

I thought it was a problem with my upgrade, but when I installed RH 7.2 in a friend's laptop (fresh installation) I got the same problem with fonts in KDE as well as Gnome!

Help - what do I do? What should I look for? RH is such a disappointment, it seems as if my old RH5.2 was always far more stable than RH 7.x!!!

Maybe a not close related, but I use Polish encoding and Polish fonts. After fresh installation it looked bad. The solution is to uninstall urw-fonts (nodeps) and install it again. Works with MDK, but I've heard it's the same with RH.
