RE: [RE: [RE: [[PLUG] Fonts?]]]


Ok, i solved my own problem! turns out kfontinst is a kde package. so i
found the site (look it up on google) and downloaded the kcontrol plugin
version. compiled, installed and viola! it's installed in KDE control
center. i pointed it to the windows fonts dir on my win partition and viola!
i had all the fonts i wanted! it even got rid og my arioso fixed font
problem from earlier.

good tool!

Let me play with it, and I'll let you know what I find. I have yet to
install
SUSE 7.2. Waiting for the extra $$$ to get a boxed set. But I have SuSE
7.1 at
home with a self-compiled version of KDE, i'll let you know if it's
system
wide and whatever other quirks i find.
