Original title: Problems with firefox displaying text in certain fonts?

For example, this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5RO6UFfUS0

looks like this

I had this problem at some point on arch and the fix was installing some font package. I just can't remember what font package it was, and googling the problem has let to some weird solutions that don't make sense for gentoo. Has anyone else had this problem?

Edit: solved by doing this:

Code: Select all

echo "media-fonts/source-han-sans l10n_ja l10n_ko l10n_zh-CN l10n_zh-TW" >> /etc/portage/package.use
emerge -a media-fonts/source-han-sans

This seems korean symbol so you should install a korean font like media-fonts/unfonts
