Hello fellow nixers,
Here are the instructions on how to get it looking like in the attached screenshot made on NetBSD current and xfce48 from pkgsrc-wip with Firefox 26. You'll need a copy of pkgsrc and that you have root access. ###### # Patching freetype: ###### # curl -O http://www.infinality.net/fedora/linux/z...64.tar.bz2 # bunzip2 freetype-infinality-2.4.12-20130514_01-x86_64.tar.bz2 # tar xf freetype-infinality-2.4.12-20130514_01-x86_64.tar # cd /usr/pkgsrc/graphics/freetype2 # make extract # make patch # cd work/freetype-2.4.12 # patch -p1 < ~/freetype-entire-infinality-patchset-20130514-01.patch # cd ../../ # make install clean ###### # Fontconfig files: ###### # curl -O http://www.infinality.net/fedora/linux/z..._1.tar.bz2 # bunzip2 fontconfig-infinality-1-20130104_1.tar.bz2 # tar xf fontconfig-infinality-1-20130104_1.tar -C /etc/fonts # cd /etc/fonts/infinality - Edit infctl.sh to have the right path to bash (/usr/pkg/bin/bash for me) # ./infctl.sh setstyle - Choose infinality. Now you need to get some fonts! From pkgsrc/fonts you can get: - consolamono-ttf-20121116 - dejavu-ttf-2.34 - droid-ttf-20111115 - liberation-ttf-2.00.1 - linux-libertine-ttf-5.1.3 - ms-ttf-20020306nb5 - vera-ttf-1.10nb4 I got my Helvetica font from my Mac OS X install since it isn't in pkgsrc. Restart X and launch Firefox, everything should look much better now! |
