I guess you're right there, because I only detected this problem after I imported TrueType fonts from the windows partition, using the automatic importer that comes with drakconf. I'm afraid to simply get rid of the TrueType fonts. I don't have that much knowledge about fonts and from my previous experiences Mandrake/Mandriva systems become somewhat unstable when you fool around too much with system configuration... The problem, however, seems to be the way lyx is handling symbol fonts for screen display. The fonts I choose on Edit -> Preferences -> Look and feel -> Screen fonts seem to be only text fonts, not math or symbol fonts. I can find no place on the configuration to choose these fonts. Does anyone else also think that this problem is related to the TrueType fonts? > Last thing I would consid- > er is trying the same on an adjacent machine, if one is available.
