X386: no 'fixed' font

X386: no 'fixed' font

Post by Denise Tr » Mon, 19 Oct 1992 09:21:34



Hi Activists,

I've seen this question asked twice before but seen no answer:
X386 fails because it cant't find the 'fixed' font.

The server reports the font path as "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc"
but in Xconfig it is the real path "/usr/X386/lib/X11/fonts/misc"

why!!!!???? I know this is a trivial problem.... but I don't know
what the fix is...
thanks to all

Denise

Try compressing the fonts in:

/usr/X386/lib/X11/fonts/misc

The font map files are setup to assume that the fonts are compressed.
Hope this helps.
