Subject: [gentoo-user] What X fonts do I really need?
Date: Fri, 20 Nov 2015 22:15:18 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20151121031518.GA23555@waltdnes.org> (raw)
After I got xterm working properly on the new install, I looked at my
list of installed fonts and did some hacking... and slashing... and got
down to this...
[i3][waltdnes][~] grep media-fonts /var/lib/portage/world
media-fonts/dejavu
media-fonts/font-bh-lucidatypewriter-100dpi
media-fonts/font-bh-type1
media-fonts/font-cursor-misc
media-fonts/font-xfree86-type1
That's in addition to any fonts pulled in by programs. Without
dejavu, ICEWM menus look ugly. I like font-bh-lucidatypewriter-100dpi
for xterms. In your experience, are...
media-fonts/font-bh-type1
media-fonts/font-cursor-misc
media-fonts/font-xfree86-type1
...really necessary?
