I tried sending this to the newbie list, but there were no takers. I'm hoping someone 
here can help me. For some reason, I'm getting the following messages as xsession 
errors:

The font "-*-helvetica-boldoblique-r-narrow-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*" does not support all 
the required character sets for the current locale "en_US"
  (Missing character set "ISO8859-1")
  (Missing character set "ISO8859-1")
The font "-*-helvetica-bold-r-narrow-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*" does not support all the 
required character sets for the current locale "en_US"

The font "-*-helvetica-boldoblique-o-normal-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*" does not support all 
the required character sets for the current locale "en_US"
  (Missing character set "ISO8859-1")
  (Missing character set "ISO8859-1")

Helvetica including the iso8859-1 character set appears to be on my system, which is 
ML 9.1 (I have the PowerPack). I've updated the kernel to 2.4.21-25 and used drakfont 
to capture some of my truetype fonts from the VFAT partition, none of which were 
helvetica.

I notice that the Help for SO6 is now messed up, as well as gnumeric and the dialog 
boxes for xine.

What happened? How can I get that character set accessed again? I've tried rpm -U 
--force with the 100dpi and 75dpi font sets, but that didn't solve the problem. I've 
reinstalled, and just like the first time, everything was fine. Then, at some point, 
after using drakfont to capture truetype fonts from my VFAT partition, the problem 
appears.

Is there a bug in drakfont that causes this? Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks,
deedee
