Hello there! Hope you’re doing well.
I can’t change the system font. For some reason the system font is set to monospace
:
You could see that under Fonts
I have set it to Noto Sans
. But this is what always gets rendered:
Even dolphin has this monospace:
I want to change this monospace because I find it hard to read, especially on Firefox, but I have no idea where this is set.
Below please see my font setting in System Settings
:
I changed it and rebooted my system. However the same monospace persisted. I should say that I also used LXAppearance
(see below) when I was tweaking the system, but I can’t figure out what’s causing the Firefox issue above.
Below is my ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf
:
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM 'fonts.dtd'>
<fontconfig>
<alias>
<family>serif</family>
<prefer>
<family>Liberation Serif</family>

and .gtkrc-2.0

Any help is much appreciated.
