Mandrake 7.0-2 server:high doesn't recognise new fontpaths. (chkfontpath --add)
The new path is in fs/config, but the system doesn't recognize it, then X locks
solid.
On reset, xfs fails (as below) and X crashes for not finding its font server:
Feb 21 10:07:05 hydra PAM_pwdb[729]: (su) session opened for user xfs by (uid=0)
Feb 21 10:07:05 hydra PAM_pwdb[729]: (su) session closed for user xfs
Feb 21 10:07:05 hydra xfs: xfs startup succeeded
Feb 21 10:07:07 hydra xfs: Fatal font server error:
Feb 21 10:07:07 hydra xfs: Element #10 (starting at 0) of font path is bad
or has a bad font: "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled"
Doesn't matter which of the system font paths is first, it fails in the
same manner. (bad path or bad font) PAM problem?
