Can anyone say why I have the error messages in my Xorg.0.log file that
I list below?
xlsfonts(1) does not list fonts that are in /usr/share/fonts.
If I add them with "xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/courier-prime" they appear
and then disappear in the "xset -q" display. They are not available to
xlsfonts, though.
Interestingly enough, adding them with the plus in back: "xset fp+
/user/..." causes them to persist, but still not be available to xlsfonts.
An inspection of /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows this:
