The latest Ubuntu Maverick Meerkat uses the Ubuntu Font Family as its default. It's a very solid looking font, so I tried it in Puppy. Big improvement IMHO
Attached is a pet package for it.
To install it as the Puppy default go to Menu->Desktop->Chtheme and click the font button on the lower LHS of the dialogue.
Edit: this is now the latest pet for this font. See lower down this thread for details of the modifications made to the original.

First of all, nice fonts! .. Small too
Can you consider putting some sleep in the pinstall, or even a longer delay on the Xdialog message so the pet finishes installing on older kit before the call to restartwm?
Also, in the pinstall can you put in a couple of lines to run mkfontdir and mkfontscale?(In the installed directory ). Some apps need this to display these fonts correctly.

how much sleep do you need? (pardon the pun!)
5 maybe?
OK will modify the pinstall.sh as u suggested. I'll do this later today after the visitors have gone. Panic LOL. The wife needs to print out something and CUPS in Quirky 1.3 has decided to take a holiday - again.

5 days would be nice if it were possible!how much sleep do you need? (pardon the pun!)

sleep 5 should be ample, maybe 3 would be enough, no need to wait too long
