Ubuntu font display
Hi,
Thanks for being here to help..!!!
I have a dual-boot XP/Ubuntu 6.06 which runs just fine. I wrote a DVD for a backup in Ubuntu and restarted the PC. Upon booting up, I got myriad errors which basically mentioned to run fsck. I did and it asked innumerable times to click Y, which I did.
The system booted normally after this, but the fonts displayed are boxes. I am not able to see any fonts whatsoever. For instance, it asks for username/password. I type in my username which again displays only as boxes, all the menus,title bars etc are displayed only as boxes. All file names/folders etc (even within the fonts folder) are just boxes.
Within the browser, it works fine (as I am typing this from Ubuntu). All the data in the system are intact, its just the font that plays traunt.
I am not a techie, so any help in layman terms is greatly appreciated. I would also like to know why this happened so that
Best Regards,
Vj.
