... but I didn't solved it yet
I just have squares instaed of letters, the only thing I can read is the italic text in on of the "tip of the day"
It worked 2 days ago, and now it didn't work anymore. As I still didn't find the problem the best I can do to help is post you what I remeber having done to my system these two days.
First of all I use a Debian Sid (unstable/testing) 2.6.6 with Gnome 2.6.1 (Gnome is fine but their burning program just sucks) on ppc.
1)I had a few library problems so I messed my gimp (I fixed it since but on k3b's site someone talked about gimp, so there may be a link)
2)I changed my kernel's native language support (to ADD some)
3)I had a problem with my laptop's hardware clock (fixed)
I hope this can help someone having a good idea about the problem.
