SUGGESTED FIX Moved linux.fontconfig.RedHat.properties to linux.fontconfig.RedHat.9.0.properties linux.fontconfig.RedHat.properties: now this file is configured for RHEL4. Very similar to the one used for RH3; however, the same font (kochi-mincho and kochi-gothic) does not have jisx0208-1983-0 entry, so now it's using unicode, iso10646-1. The range in the Greek characters (0390 - 03d6) has been excluded. After evaluation for both 2d and awt, this exclusion does now make any difference for the display. So, it's not omitted. This change was verified using Font2DTest, CharView (with/without motif tool kit option), LSD (locale specific display testing). ###@###.### 2005-06-18 00:52:46 GMT

EVALUATION Move the current fontconfig file for RH3 (named as RH) to RH3, then reuse the file, RH config for RH4 config information. ###@###.### 2005-06-08 22:09:59 GMT
