All the tests show normal results. Is your Lilypond still built with without-kpathsea or did you clean and rebuild the full installation? Try to add the flag -V to ly2dvi and see if it provides us any more hints on what goes wrong. Does ly2dvi -P give a correct PS file (it should give you a file w

Q: metafont not being called unless i run xdvi

2002-12-21 Thread David Petrou
On 1.6.6 on my Linux box, if i simply look at postscript or pdf output from Lilypond i don't get noteheads and lots of other symbols. I need to first run xdvi on the .dvi output, then the fonts are created. Once created, I'm set and don't need to run xdvi again; unless of course I try a different
