I'm using Ubuntu Edgy and the default fonts used by all Tk applications
(including the GRASS GUI) are really ugly! Has anyone dealt with this
problem yet?

By the way, I am using the packages of grass 6.2 and related items from here:
deb http://les-ejk.cz/ubuntu edgy multiverse

I don't remember who made these, but thank you for providing them. :slight_smile:

And probably you have nvidia, and probably you have instlalled nvidia drivers with automatix (or simmilar). It is the tcltk problem not grass. Look, all your tcltk applications fonts haven't antialiasing.

unfortunatly I didn't solve the problem. Maybe you shall look for solution on tcltk or nvidia news (I tried but without result). In fact: the problem appears in edgy (not in dapper), and is connected with nvidia drivers and affect on tcltk. Maybe on ubuntu 7.4 problem will not occur (closed drivers will be included in system)
