Which version of myth are you using? Personally, I've never had it installed, and never had font issues. It could be missing some generic font, and not necessarily corefonts. liberation-fonts might work as well. MythTV actually includes it's own free font which it will use as a fallback. I actually used that font for ages since I never had any font packages installed on my system until I gave my myth look a make over and used some nicer looking fonts. I still don't have corefonts installed on that machine, though. can't dupe this one, and if its still an issue, which version of myth are you using? I just had this. I started with a fresh system, headless, as it's a duplicate of a server for testing. This was mainly used for MythTV 0.22 testing. When I got everything setup, then emerged MythTV (0.22), everything went fine. I then ran setup, and was unable to see nothing but squares. I did a quick search, and it came up about corefonts. I installed them, and I was able to see everything. It seems with not installing X, something else doesn't get installed to use the fallback font. When I get home this evening I can post --info if people would like to see it. |
