Fonts #2

In addition, I have many fonts that display in my selector that when I click on them say The Selected font is not available. Then why are they listed there? How do I get rid of them...and I have done an xset fp rehash.

Thanks again.

Sounds like the problem dealed with in

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58848

Basically the problem is that the font is generally available but cannot be provided at the size that GIMP tries to use. This is a problem with the old text tool that is unlikely to ever get fixed. You can work around it by using scaleable fonts only.
