This doesn't seem to be a cygport issue, so might be more on topic at the cygwin-xfree list > Regards, > > George... > > bash-3.2$ xterm -fn -adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--0-0-100-100-m-0-iso8859-14 > Warning: Cannot convert string "nil2" to type FontStruct > Warning: Unable to load any usable ISO8859 font > Warning: Unable to load any usable ISO8859 font I'd suggest you check that none of conditions mentioned in the following FAQ apply http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#q-error-font-eof (this FAQ needs updating, since the fixed font is now built-in to the server, an inability to read any of the fonts will result in fixed being the only font available, not a failure to start the server) If that doesn't help, please post on the cygwin-xfree list with your /var/log/XWin.0.log. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SF.Net email is Sponsored by MIX09, March 18-20, 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
