Installing fonts
Hi, i'm trying to install a true type font on my computer, now i have found a guide to do this, but it says at some point you need to run
but i get the following error when i try the ttmkfdir > fonts.scale line:Code:ttmkfdir > fonts.scale mkfontdir
i have searched YaST for ANYTHING to do with ttmkfdir, and there's only ONE thing that came up, and that was installed. Does anyone know what i need to do?-bash: ttmkfdir: command not found"I am not an alcoholic, alcoholics go to meetings"
