font badness

[Glenn Holmer]

F23 KDE spin, all patches applied.

I see that font preview in system settings is still broken. Also, if you
bring up the font settings, most of them default to the first one in the
list rather than the currently set one.

Anyone else seeing this?

Just checked on F22: Font preview is OK for me, font settings under
  System Settings > Font > Fonts > Choose ...
look good, too.

Yes.  I see the failure in  System-Settings--->Appearance--->Font-->Font
Management the
preview is broken on my F23 system (updated from F22 via dnf).  Fully updated running
nouveau as the video driver.

But working on an F23 system running in a VBox VM!

Other nvidia/nouveau users, yes, see also:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1208229

We suspect some video driver issue (since it only occurs on nv hardware 
apparently).
