[Bug 164208] Re: Thunderbird fails to start

[Ivan Schoultz]

Found my problem, and fixed it too (not bad for the new kid on the
block, hehehehe :-)


a hidden folder : ~/home/.fonts
That folder all has symbolic links to the actual font files located in my fonts repository folder.

2 Problems:
1) Some of the actual font files had become corrupted. (Specifically tahoma.ttf and trebuchet.ttf)
Solution: restored good files from a Windows machine.

2) Some of the symbolic links to a few fonts no longer worked because the repository container folder had been renamed (none of these fonts were causing errors in the output window though, but probably would have at a later date.)
Solution: renamed the repository back to what it was so all the originals fonts can be properly located.

cheers.
