The switch from Fedora 7 to 8 seems to have revealed some problems. The same lazarus executable looks fine on 7, but on 8 has two issues:

1. The font used for menus and dialog boxes is now a rather larger font (?Arial) and is clearly not using the gtk2 theme settings. I suspect this is because the gtk1 theme info is no longer installed but I can't identify the appropriate files. Any ideas?

2. The font used for displaying source code looks rather worse - it does not show reserved words in bold, for example. Changing the font via the environment options does not seem to help. Has anybody else had this problem?
And the answer (for future reference) is that 75dpi fonts needed to be manually installed. The version 7 install had both 75 dpi and 100 dpi fonts automatically, but version 8 (on two different systems) only installed the 100 dpi fonts. The reduced selection seems to have defeated the default gtk1 theme, and given a reduced choice of fonts for LCL.
