Re: xbase
Xsun does (unfortunately) not know about gzipped fonts. The easy fix Off hand, why not? It's just a config option, and you've got zlib... (Remember, gzipped fonts aren't debian specific -- I contributed them to the X consortium first, and they did go out in normal X11R6 releases.) is to set up a local X font server (xfs), and start Xsun with Umm, no, won't xfs just send the gzip'ed fonts over, or did that get fixed? (This was a problem I had when I wrote the code in the first place - Xnest couldn't test them and xfs didn't help...) Just curious (I haven't tried the server yet myself; in fact, I turned over X package developement to someone else, though I'm still advising...) _Mark_ [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Herd of Kittens -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

I don't have enough disk space for a development env so for now I can only report... $ /usr/X11R6/bin/Xsun (using VT number 7) Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap failed to set default font path '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/' Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed' Any ideas?
