Hi,
Some code analysis and debugging shows that the function if
(!(*pScr-RealizeFont) (pScr, pfont)) called from doOpenFont() in file
dix/dixfonts.c is failing in the first case whereas succeeding in the second
case.
Can anybody please let me know what could be the reason.
Regards,
Girish

Subject: Xnest Font Server setting
To: devel@XFree86.Org
Hi,
I am trying to connect to XServer using Xnest as follows :
Xnest :1 -kb -terminate -name -query X_SERVER_IP -geometry 1280x969 -fp
tcp/FONT_SERVER_IP:7100
but I can only see a blank window which vanishes within a fraction of a
second.
The error I see is : could not open default font 'fixed'.
Now, if I use,
Xnest :1 -kb -terminate -name -query X_SERVER_IP
-geometry 1280x969 -fp
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/cursor/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/arkpandora,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
then I can successfully connect to X and can see Xnext login window.
Now, if I run the first command again then this time it works fine without any
error.
Is there any reason why it did not work if I tried only FONT_SERVER_IP:7100
before specifying all the font paths and it worked after specifying font
paths? Does this have anything to do with caching?
Regards,
Girish
