Hi Folks,
I setup a number of desktop Linux systems and I'm attempting to switch
to x86_64. My plan is to run 32 bit browser(s) to better support evil
closed source web plugins.
For the most part I have everything working fine under Fedora 13, except
for fonts. The fonts on the 32 bit apps just aren't right. An example of
the font issue is here:

In this image, Thunderbird is 64 bit and has the correct fonts, Firefox
is 32 bit and doesn't.
I'm sure I just missing a 32 bit package but I can't seem to figure out
which one. Suggestions are be welcomed.
Thanks,
Jimmy
