Re: [Fontforge-users] Fontforge not working on Kubuntu

[<so...@io...>]

I tried that, but it didn't fix the problem. When I launched Fontforge
(from the terminal), the terminal reported

Help! Server claimed font
         -adobe-times-medium-r-normal--14-140-75-75-p-74-iso8859-1
  existed in the font list, but when I asked for it there was nothing.
  I think I'll crash soon.

followed by the same message repeated 173 times (100 referring to
"adobe-times" and 73 referring to "adobe-helvetica").

I'm beginning to realise that I have a Linux problem and not a Fontforge
problem; but I'm already at the limit of my knowledge of Linux (a recent
convert) and have nowhere else to turn.

"Font list": is that a font cache of some kind? Can I clear it, or
otherwise fix it? I don't think I have any Adobe fonts, only the default
Kubuntu installation of (I presume) open-source fonts.

Thanks again for the help.
