The xfs Fontpath (at least in 6.x and 7.x) was set in /etc/X11/fs/config. XftConfig was more of a secondary configuration file for things like anti-aliasing, ie: >Configuration might be possibly be an issue. > cat /etc/X11/XftConfig.README-OBSOLETE Interesting. Nothing stays in one place for long. Good thing I never tried to learn all the twists and turns of XftConfig. I really don't like a mind clutter with obsolete goodies :/ -- Hal Burgiss
