Iâm unable to reproduce that behaviour with Windows 7 home premium. Iâve got no other fonts installed than the default ones Converting fonts might be very CPU consuming so I guess it also depends on your hardware. Here with a core2duo ULV 7300 (ie, not very powerful it doesnât take more than 2 minutes. Could you give the output of the following commands - lspcidrake -v - cat /proc/cpuinfo Could you also tell us how many fonts you have installed on windows ? CC:

I have Athlon X2 QL-64 (2.1 GHz dual core), it should be faster. I have Windows Vista Bussiness and there are only default fonts (if there are no other fonts in updates). I don't know where to find how much font there are, in /usr/share/fonts/drakfont (as far as I know fonts from Windows should be here) is about 600 files, 300 MB. Getting fonts took 12 minutes (most of the time the system wasn't usable for any other activity). I don't know if it's a bug, but if it's ok and just take a lot of time, it would be good, if possible, to make system usable for low-consuming applications during installation. sorry i didn't saw you answered to this question in comment 4 :)

m.van.waes It is far less noticeable on more modern faster CPUs. But I don't think anybody's touched drakfont in ages, so wherever it was a problem, it probably still is. CC:
