[mapguide-users] Strange labels on Ubuntu Linux 7.10

It's likely failing to match the font used for the labels. For example if it is set to Arial and the Linux box doesn't have that font, it may match with some other font -- and the matching is not always perfect. One solution is to install the right fonts on the Linux box, another is to explicitly specify fonts that are available on Ubuntu in the layer definition.

	Hi List,
	
	I just built mgos 1.2.0 on Ubuntu Linux 7.10, and when I loaded up the
	Sheboygan dataset, I get these crazy  looking wingding like labels, instead
	of english text. (?)
	
	See attached screenshot

	Any ideas what could be wrong?
