no letters in the GUI
 

Hi!

I just installed Fluent on a Linux openSUSE 10.3 system. The installation was fine and i can start Fluent. BUT instead of letters in the GUI, there are only squares! The other text is displayed well.

What might the problem be????

fluent only supported on rhel 3 and sles 9 officially. Update graphics drivers and check graphics card compatibility.

I have Suse 10.1 running on a 64bit AMD and it works fine. Maybe some font librarys are missing on your system or the locale language settings are incorrect. Below you can find the fonts installed on my system. Suse 10.3 version number may vary but the package names should be the same.
