Operating Systems Linux How do we change the default font on Linux system? Post 303042338 by Neo on Sunday 22nd of December 2019 12:13:56 AM

If I were you, the next step I would take is to search for:

Code:
StRydeRegular.ttf

(or something similar)

In the directories indicated in your config output:

Code:
[root@vultr fonts]# sudo fc-cache -fv
/usr/share/fonts: caching, new cache contents: 0 fonts, 2 dirs
/usr/share/fonts/dejavu: caching, new cache contents: 9 fonts, 0 dirs
/usr/share/fonts/lyx: caching, new cache contents: 12 fonts, 0 dirs
/usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1: skipping, no such directory
/usr/share/X11/fonts/TTF: skipping, no such directory
/usr/local/share/fonts: skipping, no such directory
/root/.local/share/fonts: skipping, no such directory
/root/.fonts: skipping, no such directory
/usr/share/fonts/dejavu: skipping, looped directory detected
/usr/share/fonts/lyx: skipping, looped directory detected
/var/cache/fontconfig: cleaning cache directory
/root/.cache/fontconfig: not cleaning non-existent cache directory
/root/.fontconfig: not cleaning non-existent cache directory
/usr/bin/fc-cache-64: succeeded

My first guess, at this point, is that you have not installed the desired font family in one of the directories required or included in your config file.

As a side note:

More often-than-not, just coping and pasting files and directories from one platform to another, without understanding how they actually work and all the required files and directories, results in the problems you are seeing.
