Maybe it means your xorg keymap has errors in the specification. I don't think these messages are fatal. Google has quite a lot of them, and a couple of them were for 'pc', the rest were for 'xfree86' or 'inet'. Hmm, it's probably from xkeyboard-config. My 6.3 scripts had the following - # needed while rules files are not in /usr/share, otherwise # my keymap script can't get setxkbmap to work. if ! [ -e /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules ]; then echo "setting rules symlink" ln -sv ../../../lib/X11/xkb/rules /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules fi > Fatal server error: > could not open default font 'fixed' > giving up. As Mike said, check your fonts. For BLFS-6.3 I had got rid of most of the core fonts (applications mostly using TTFs) so the packages I built between xkeyboard-config and xorg-server were: encodings, font-util, font-adobe (75dpi on small screens, 100dpi elsewhere), font-alias, font-cursor-misc, font-misc-misc. You'll have a hard job to do without these in that old version of xorg. Also, check that that fonts are where you told xorg-server to look ( I guess that would be /usr/lib/X11/fonts). ĸen -- After tragedy, and farce, "OMG poneys!" -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
