Hi there, I've had this font problem since slink (iirc) and it persists as of Xsun version 3.3.6-9. I don't know of a cure. However I usually don't get a fatal server error just Cannot open /dev/gpmdata, error 2. Trying /dev/sunmouse. I thought the default was sunmouse ?!? I don't even have gpm installed.. Not much of a help.... -- Ragga
