Help: characters problem

[SpideWolf]

Hi everyones,

I have a big problem with all characters on my Kali Sana.
All of my characters have been changed after and update and I don't know how to resolve this.
I see all menus like this: ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
I see all applications names like that: ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
All folders ands documents: ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐

All programs work, but I can't navigate normally with characters like ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐ and ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐.

If you have a solution, I would be happy.

Thanks

PS: Sorry for my English, I'm not very good

Rebuild your font cache

fc-cache -f

Restart or restart gnome

Sounds like a GUI problem...have you tried removing & reinstalling GDM?

Also, I don't think Kali Sana is supported since the release of Kali Rolling; not sure how much longer the Sana repos will be up.

Thanks a lot guys, it work now.

I post the solution for people who have the same problem:

1/ First open a terminal and type:

fc-cache -f

2/ Restart

3/ If it does not work, press Alt + F2. A window will open. In this window enter:

rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity

4/ Restart
