Hi,

I have installed root on ubuntu 11.04 without any problem but when I run root, I see the following:

---

asaddiq_at_Inspiron-1545:~$ root
Couldn't find font "-adobe-helvetica-medium-r-*-*-10-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1", trying "fixed". Please fix your system so helvetica can be found, this font typically is in the rpm (or pkg equivalent) package XFree86-[75,100]dpi-fonts or fonts-xorg-[75,100]dpi.
