Yep.  Should have said that outright.  Sorry.

But, that means it's installed right.  So you're probably
being bitten
by a known (but unidentified) issue (that's either an issue
with your
configuration, your system libraries, your video drivers, or
the font
itself--we still haven't identified it, but it doesn't seem
to be a bug
in Myth).

See http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/dev/2
95279#295279 and
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/use
rs/294597#294597 (the
link referenced within the previous link).

If you give me a link to a picture of the screen, I can tell
you for
sure whether that's the problem.  Or, you can follow the
instructions in
the above posts and, if it fixes the symptom (ugly OSD
fonts), it was
the problem.

I don't know how to capture the screen.  I tried to do that
and failed
because I believe the picture I want is in
"overlay".  All I get is a
black box.
