I'd give it a resounding "yes". other than a few small problems I didn't
see a reason not to.
the problems just so you know:
drakfont automagicly digs windows partitions and imports TTFs it
finds. displaying hebrew from Arial or other bilingual font is fine, but
try Rod, David, Narkisim or other hebrew-only fonts, and your XFree
server freezes in Gnome (no problem in KDE). I'm stumped as to why this
is tied to the graphic toolkit, but it is. it;s reproducable on my
system (Matrox G400)
XConfigurator has to have its arm twisted to give resolution higher than
800x600, and even then the scan rate is too low.
otherwise it's very cool. even fribidi comes on the CD, sof ha'olam.
