How exactly did you install the .ttf fonts? In KDE? Where can I download the .ttf file? Linux Rulez!!!
In any case, I used information that I found here on the forums so you should be able to at least search and find the same information, if needed.First grab the fonts here I'm using the first ones in the list (258k) - I'm not sure if it matters which one you use or not.
Then copy the font(s) to /usr/share/fonts/
Following the instructions either here or here for changing the default font x-western.
Edit: Elpaso's method sounds much easier - didn't even think of using KDE to install the fonts since the problem was in microb

PB: I have KDE installed on MMC2, and it is also the boot SD card. Now I want to make another boot SD to install XFCE, would this mess up anything, in particular the swap.img and local.img on the MMC1? I understand that, in this case, I will have to change the MMC2 everything I want to switch between KDE with XFCE.
And I am going to follow Ty (Aisu)'s instruction. Any do's and dont's?
TIA,
bun

I followed the instructions and got all files for mmc1 installed (n800, os2008 Ver: 2.2007.50-2, 2gb external sd Ultra II) fine. When I was trying to install local-mmc2 on the internal sd (2 GB Patriot), under the Application manager, it shows "Install application? local-mmc2 1.0.0-11551.6gb", then I hit OK, ..., unable to install local-mmc2. Would you please give me some help as how to fix this problem? I checked the file size. It was 498k. I downloaded it again, it became 499k (510548 viewed under the Winxp). Still no go. I even reformated the sd for FAT32, copied those files to mmc2. Still no go. "unable to install local-mmc2" Maybe I should try a different SD card?
Thank you.
I replaced the 2GB Patriot sd card (internal, mmc2) with Kingston 4GB sdhc, but I got the same result.

I think MicroB font issue after KDE Install should be moved to this thread.
http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=14995
Sorry about this mishap. I was the second one to post on this thread and I asked about the font issue. I didn't know that everybody had this problem.

Hi Penguinbait
In the build of KDE could you add evolution-exchange so we can gat at MS mail servers as they are pretty uiquitous these days and it is the one key thing for me that all three of the N*** have been missing.

To install fonts with KDE you can use the font installer after downloading the .ttf files.
The font installer is in KDE control center and in system administration menu. I did the install in aadmin mode (root pwd required)
Now we have a fix, but we still don't know how to reset the default font in microb to nokia sans.
