Try reinstall for gtk2.

Last time I experienced boxes for all characters,
the fix was to reinstall pango.

Give it a try.

please see the OTHER post on this
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...-a-4175500828/

fedora uses both gtk3
and gtk2

gtk2 is used for the gnome desktop

but
you never answered HOW you installed a second and different version of gtk3

if it was the source then it can NOT be mixed with the default installed rpm of gtk3

at this point i would reinstall fedora 20
