Hi 

Just D/L'ed the GTK RPM for the latest stable (I am using RH7.1 Intel, KDE 
2.1.1) Seemed to install with no hiccups at all.

When I execute the script 'abiword' I get a message the it can't find the 
"Times New Roman" font, which indeed xfontsel can't find either. 

Checking the website, I saw that one needs to run xset to add the path to the 
TrueType fonts.  Since this is a dual boot and I have the windows VFAT 
partition mounted under RH7.1, it seemed this would be simple but I did not 
get it to work.  I tried all the combinations that seemed reasonable to no 
avail. Here is an example.

[root@localhost hs]#  xset +fp /win/win98/fonts
X Error of failed request:  86
  Major opcode of failed request:  51 (X_SetFontPath)
  Serial number of failed request:  9
  Current serial number in output stream:  11

The xset man page seems to say that I did it right but clearly not so and I 
did not find any explanation of the error codes.

Could someone either tell me what I am doing wrong or point me to a page 
which would do the same? Thanks much!

Cheers

Henry
