Description Shawn Boles 2004-04-16 19:07:38 UTC 
All I have to do is open The GIMP for Windows, and the Console pops up with 

** (gimp-2.0.exe:4294512909): WARNING **: Couldn't load font "MS Sans Serif 8"
falling back to "Sans 8"

And ever time I use a tool, open a menu, open a window, ANYTHING that uses the
GUI, the same error prints out about 10 times.  Is there any way to fix this?  I
am convinced that this is why The GIMP is slow on my computer!

According to http://www2.arnes.si/~sopjsimo/gimp/faq.html this is a known
problem with the GTKWimp theme. Instructions on how to fix the problem is on
that page. Closing as NOTGNOME.

Hmmm...  It would have been better to mark both this one and bug #165334 as
duplicates of bug #112401.  I don't know why I only added a reference in
comment #3 without marking this as a duplicate.  Probably because there were
already too many dupes...
