Something like this happened once on my RH8 system. /var/lib/xkb was gone and "default font 'fixed'" was gone. Re-installing the XFree86 rpm restored /var/lib/xkb and re-installing the XFree86-base-fonts rpm restored the font. Look for clues in logs, not sure which. Maybe /var/log/XFree86.0.log, /var/log/messages and/or /var/log/boot.log Redhat system should have Lynx in /usr/bin which will allow you to retrieve rpms without X if you need to. It's a bit wierd to use, but gets the job done. -- Ian Stephen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
