it is a font problem, but i don' t know if it is a misconfigured file or a bug (it would suprise me)
I just installed the 4.3.0 release (from cvs, xf-4_3_0 tag) no error at compilation or at install I didn ' t change the /etc/fonts/fonts.conf file so it contains : <dir>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts</dir> <dir>/usr/share/fonts</dir> <dir>~/.fonts</dir> so the problem is when I run an xterm -fa "Courier" (example taken from docs), it causes a Out Of Memory linux kernel error, though I have 256 MB of memory. If i change /etc/fonts/fonts.conf and I put only Type1 (by example), problems disappear and fc-cache works without parameter and xterm -fa "Courier" too I didn' t install any other fonts than which from X4.3 itself fc-cache cause problem when I run it without argument when I run with a font directory, it works Is it a bug ?or a misconfigured xft ? What font directories should I and should I not put in fonts.conf ? here s the result for each of my font directory (these created by make install) fc-cache: "100dpi": skipping, 397 fonts, 0 dirs fc-cache: "75dpi": skipping, 397 fonts, 0 dirs fc-cache: "CID": caching, 0 fonts, 0 dirs fc-cache: "Speedo": skipping, 0 fonts, 0 dirs fc-cache: "TTF": skipping, 12 fonts, 0 dirs fc-cache: "Type1": skipping, 29 fonts, 0 dirs fc-cache: "cyrillic": caching, 0 fonts, 0 dirs fc-cache: "encodings": skipping, 0 fonts, 1 dirs fc-cache: "encodings/large": skipping, 0 fonts, 0 dirs fc-cache: "local": skipping, 0 fonts, 0 dirs fc-cache: "misc": skipping, 55 fonts, 0 dirs fc-cache: "util": skipping, 0 fonts, 0 dirs and here is my X config file (path section) Section "Files" RgbPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb" ModulePath "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/local" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF" EndSection so before make install, the file fonts.conf doesnn't seem to be usable before a little tweak Axel _______________________________________________ Fonts mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/fonts
