[webkit-dev] Issues with font rendering on DirectFB build

[Rachel Bassett]

Thanks for the responses, however I don't think it is
the same. Looking at the google homepage image (on the
link you sent), the text "Web Images News" etc
appears, as well as the blue highlighted links to the
right and below the search box. I don't get any of
that - just images, the search box and the buttons.

I naively thought that if I could run gtk-demo
successfully and see all the fonts it displays, then I
assumed I had correctly built everything needed. I
have also checked my config.log files for both pango
and cairo and they indeed show I have built cairo for
directfb and pango for cairo. I had initial problems
with gtk-demo not displaying fonts, but that was a
pango problem and now solved.

So I assuming WebKit does something slightly different
but as yet I don't understand what.

My current thoughts are that its possibly path related
- I'm working through the output from strace to check
the differences between running WebKit native on a
Linux PC and WebKit cross compiled on my mips
hardware.

Do I need a gtkrc to point at where fonts / styles
are?

Many thanks
Rachel
