You also need freetype 2, I recommend that you use freetype 2.0.1 or
|
||||
later, as there was some problems with freetype-config in 2.0.
|

Make sure that you install freetype before pango, since pango also
|
||||
needs it.

Freetype can be found at ftp://ftp.freetype.org

|
||||
Then configure Gtk by running configure (or autogen.sh if running from
|
||||
cvs) with --with-gdktarget=linux-fb.
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure that pango and gtk+ are installed in the same prefix, as
|
||||
gtk+ installs a new pango module that pango must be able to find.
|
||||
|
||||
Then compile as ususal: make; make install
|
||||
|
||||
This installs a new pango module that pango must be instructed to
|
||||
find. This is done by running something like:
|
||||
pango-querymodules > /your_prefix/etc/pango/pango.modules
|
||||
(look at this file and make sure it contains a row with fb-basic.so.

Fonts:
|
||||
------
|
||||
Since GtkFB uses freetype 2 to render fonts it can render truetype and
|
||||
postscript type 1 antialiased fonts. At startup it scans these
|
||||
directories looking for any fonts:
|
||||
/usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType
|
||||
/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1
|
||||
/usr/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType
|
||||
/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1
|
||||
$(prefix)/share/fonts
|
||||
postscript type 1 antialiased fonts.
|
||||
|
||||
It also has a hardcoded font alias handling. This is important because
|
||||
most program refers to the standard fonts by the names "Sans", "Serif"
|
||||
and "Monotype". The default aliases in GtkFB maps these to the
|
||||
M$ truetype fonts: Arial, Times New Roman, and Courier New (you need
|
||||
to own a copy of Windows to use these) and the type1 fonts URW Gothic,
|
||||
URW Bookman and Courier. You will need to have at least Arial or URW
|
||||
Gothic installed, because the "Sans" font is used as a last case font.
|
||||
At startup it scans some directories looking for fonts. By default
|
||||
it looks in $prefix/lib/ft2fonts, and if you want to change this you
|
||||
must add something like:
|
||||
|
||||
If you've done all this and fonts still doesn't work, make sure you've
|
||||
run pango-querymodules as described in the building and installing
|
||||
section.
|
||||
[PangoFT2]
|
||||
FontPath = /usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType
|
||||
|
||||
To your $prefix/etc/pango/pangorc or ~/.pangorc.
|
||||
|
||||
You must also set up font aliases for the fonts Sans, Serif and Monotype.
|
||||
This is done by creating a $prefix/etc/pango/pangoft2.aliases or
|
||||
~/.pangoft2.aliases file. You can also set the name of this file using the
|
||||
key AliasFiles in the PangoFT2 section in pangorc.
|
||||
|
||||
An example of a font alias file is:
|
||||
sans normal normal normal normal "arial"
|
||||
serif normal normal normal normal "times new roman"
|
||||
monospace normal normal normal normal "courier new"
|
||||
|
||||
A more detailed example can be found in examples/pangoft2.aliases in the
|
||||
pango distribution.
