Some TTF fonts not available in Gimp, xfontsel, etc.
Hi!
I've been experiencing some font problems with Mandrake 9.2.
It seems that some applications, such as Gimp or xfontsel, are unable to find and use some of the fonts I have. It mainly concerns the fonts from fonts-ttf-decoratives-1.3-12mdk.
For example, if I try to use the font 'actionis.ttf', Gimp will claim that the font is not available. Xfontsel will just display a blank window. Drakfont is, however, able to find and display the font correctly. Gfontview as well.
If I try to set the FontPath explicitly to '/usr/share/fonts/ttf/decoratives' in my XF86 config (XF86 4.3), Gimp crashes as soon as I try to use one of the fonts from ttf-decoratives. Same thing for xfontsel.
I really don't have a clue about what's happening... Are the paths not correctly set? Is there another configuration file for the fonts in X, Gimp, GTK, whatsoever? Are the fonts in ttf-decoratives somehow corrupted?
If anyone as a clue about what's happening, I'll be glad to hear it!
Thanks in advance!
