In Unity, all "O" are showing up as "V"

  • 772

Since today, in Ubuntu 12.10 running Unity, my font has been doing something strange.

The O characters are showing up as V. See the graphics below. For example, the desktop folder on this file open dialog is spelled as Desktvp.

Any ideas would be most appreciated.

    Fonts can become corrupted.

    Try re-installing ttf-ubuntu-font-family and then rebooting.

    To re-install use Synaptic Install synaptic or run in a terminal:

    sudo apt-get --reinstall install ttf-ubuntu-font-family
