hey,
so i'm an arch linux user. i have a number of bitmap fonts installed. i can see them when i run
Code:
fc-list
and they appear in font selection menus in applications like lxappearance. if i set my terminal emulator (urxvt) to use a bitmap font (e.g. gohuFont) it works perfectly. but when i try and use them in gtk/qt apps they crash. for instance, if i set the interface font to gohu then try and run sublime text 2 i get this error:

Code:
sublime_text: cairo-scaled-font.c:459: _cairo_scaled_glyph_page_destroy: Assertion `!scaled_font->cache_frozen' failed.

i'm a relativity new archer, and didn't have any of these issues on debian. i'm really not sure what to try next. thanx in advance for suggestions!
