Dear friends: [Using Mandrake 6.1} I tried to add the Windows 3.1 ttf fonts to mandake's ttfonts directory. Even after removing w and x permissions (by using chmod) so that the Win 3.1 fonts all had the exact same permission as the Mandrake fonts did), it just didn't work. I am trying to restore everything back to normal and am having problems. Well, now I have a new problem. See the data below: [root@adsl-77-232-172 rpm]# rpm -e ttfonts removal of /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/ttfonts/fonts.dir failed: No such file or directory /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.82086: line 3: 834 Segmentation fault (core dumped) /usr/sbin/chkfontpath -q -r /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/ttfonts execution of script failed [root@adsl-77-232-172 rpm]# [root@adsl-77-232-172 rpm]# rpm -Uvh ttfonts-1.3-3mdk.i586.rpm ttfonts ################################################## [root@adsl-77-232-172 rpm]# [root@adsl-77-232-172 rpm]# cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/ttfonts [root@adsl-77-232-172 ttfonts]# ls Adventure.ttf bazaroni.ttf davis.ttf fadgod.ttf ikart.ttf Bluehigb.ttf beast wars.ttf demon.ttf failed.ttf ikarv.ttf Bluehigc.ttf betadance.ttf densmore.ttf fakerece.ttf independ.ttf Bluehigh.ttf betsy.ttf dienasty.ttf flubber.ttf indigo.ttf CaptainPodd.ttf binary.ttf dirtydoz.ttf fontrstc.ttf kenyan.ttf a_d_mono.ttf brandnew.ttf distortia.ttf fonts.dir kingrichard.ttf actionis.ttf capacitor.ttf edgewater.ttf fudd.ttf larabief.ttf babelfish.ttf contourg.ttf electroh.ttf goldengi.ttf balconya.ttf creature.ttf eli5.0-.ttf hydrogen.ttf baltar.ttf crystalr.ttf embargo2.ttf ikarrg.ttf [root@adsl-77-232-172 ttfonts]# Notice please that half the fonts (after larabief.ttf) are missing.

How can I just restore Mandrake's own ttfonts and restart xfs correctly and forget the whole thing? Thanks so much.
