Culmus fonts on WeTab (MeeGo)

[Yosef Meller]

Hello,

So, I just bought a brand new WeTab, a device based on MeeGo. I bought 
it in Germany, and now I'm trying to get it to speak Hebrew. My first 
step is to install the culmus fonts so I can st least see Hebrew sites, 
but whatever I do, I can't get them recognized.

What I did:
I untarred the latest package (0.120) into /usr/share/X11/fonts/ and 
symlinked to it in /etx/X11/fontpath.d/ (the place indicated by `xset 
q`). I made sure that it has all permissions and ownerships like the 
other font dirs.

Restarting the device, the font was not recognized. I tried using 
fc-cache on the directory, adding it with xset +fp ...; xset rehash, but 
the fonts don't show up neither in fc-list nor in xlsfonts. I also tried 
running mkfontsdir, which produced a fonts.dir file containing the 
string '0' and nothing more.

How can I debug this? Is there any way I can have a verbose output of 
what directories are searched and why they are dropped? There's nothing 
in /var/log/Xorg.0.log. Or does anybody know what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,
Yosef.

PS - I'm doing all those experiments in a virtualbox image of the WeTab, 
I want to get it right before I abuse my actual hardware :)
