I recently reinstalled all of the xfnt packages on my box, and this has broken X. This is the error message I get when I run 'startx':
failed to set default font path '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc' Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed' _X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: can't connect: errno = 111 giving up. xinit: Connection refused(errno 111): unable to connect to X server xinit: no such process (errno 3): Server error. I found a mention of the "could not open default font 'fixed'" error in the man pages, and it said that this means that there is an invalid entry in the font path. However, the path does exist, and I ran 'mkfontdir' to be sure that fonts.dir exists and is in order. root is group and owner for all relevant files and directories, and the permissions are world read, world execute if a directory. I'm at a loss for what to do to fix this, and any help would be appreciated.
