same problem in iceweael with flash if I right click on a flash the dialog box opens but the font is only made out of rectangles, if I copy paste the content of a dialog box to a text program I can read the text

IE32 = 32bit Internet Explorer?

I don't think 64studio includes Flash by default, either. Can you tell us more about your system?

PANGO error

I have the flash plugin installed in iceweasel, it works fine but the right mouseclick calling a dialog shows no fonts just rectangles.

cannot make a screenshot while the flash dialog is up

but I could make one with the vuescan app to show the same problem

have a look at:

a few ideas....

Just googling over lunchtime here, none of this is original ideas from me. You've probably already tried these lines of enquiry.... but

1. Check the permissions are ok for all fonts in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/

2. check all *pango* packages are installed

3. Update/re-install of pango packages and fonts

4. Check language settings have not been changed to something else

5. Try installing gtk2.0-dev

PANGO error

permissions are -rw-r--r--
pango packages are installed
where do you change the language settings?
I installed gtk2.o-dev

I have the same problem on 3 workstations running studio 64
