Topic: Problems with the Fonts in Hyperbola 0.4

Apparently "Xfonsel" does not recognize the fonts installed. The WMs who can not work with "XFT" as Stumpwm do not have the possibility to configure Fonts. The most of the WMs use this format:

-xos4-terminus-medium-r-normal-*-20-*-*-*-*-*-*-*


that, in version 0.4, Is not recognized.

Another experience or solution?

You need the core fonts. Install xenocara-font-misc-meta to install all the core fonts at once.

Edit: you are right, I had the same issue.

Ok, this is how I fixed it:

cd /usr/share/fonts
for i in *
do
if [ -d "$i" ]
then
cd "$i"
doas mkfontdir
cd ..
fi
done

You must copy and paste the previous lines in a terminal.

You need to have "doas" installed. It it asks you a passord, type it in
and press enter.
