Pango WARNING:Fonts getting displayed as squares

[Zaks]

Hi All,

It's been a tedious week I am wanting to find a solution for the
fonts
problem which are displayed as squares but now before I give up if
somebody could help me, i would be very much grateful. Let me
describe
my environment

I am porting Firefox on MIPS platform and have developed the cross
compiler for MIPS. I have compiled all the required packages and have
compiled mozilla as well. All of this is over DirectFB. But my
firefox
doesn't start at all. It somewhat hangs. I tried to step down to see
if other installed packages are working

I verified TestGTKEmbed. It displays the layout but no text
I verified gtk-demo. All texts are replaced by small squares
I verified pango/examples/.libs/cairoshape. This also replaced text
by
small squares.

All of the above 3 tests have the Pango warning ** failed to create
cairo scaled font...... &
Pang WARNING ** shaping failure........

The following is what I have done
1) Followed the steps given in https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/DFBPorting
2) Have done with the help of the script and manual also
3)Have checked with higher and lower versions of fontconfig/cairo/
pango packages
4)Have copied all the fonts from the Linux machine to /usr/share/
fonts
of my target
5) Have run fc-cache -rvf
6) Have tried with different fonts followed by fc-cache -rvf

I have a strong suspicion on my target environment. It would be more
helpful if somebody could tell me what I have to copy from host to
target to avoid this error

Am totally stuck. Could any of you please guide me somewhere?

This might fit well into the developers newsgroup rather than this
group. You're welcome to ask and you might just get a response, but
IIRC this is more of a layman's group.

Right, this is a User-2-User group for basic user setup and uaseage issues.

To the OP, We frown on cross-posting by users of the Mozilla server. When
It is done, the OP should set one of the groups as Followup To: so all
replys go to one group only.
