cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
ls # vga.pcf is present in the directory
ls -l vga.pcf #output is:
# -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 24632 Jul 9 1999 vga.pcf
grep vga.pcf fonts.dir
# vga.pcf vga
mkfontdir
# no errors
grep vga.pcf fonts.dir
# vga.pcf vga
xset fp rehash
# no errors
xfontsel &
# vga.pcf is not listed. There is
