xfs segfaults with truetype fonts
I want to use xfs from X4 with truetype fonts. I created a fonts.dir file with ttmkfdir and added the path with the fonts to /etc/X11/fs/config. I restarted xfs and X. Everytime I try to use one of the ttfs xfs dumps core. What can I do? Cheers Martin -- fortune: cpu time/usefulness ratio too high -- core dumped. pgpyOIfaXoaAt.pgp Description: PGP signature

What can I do? with X4 you don't need to run them through the font server, just make sure the freetype extension is being loaded and add the directory for your truetype fonts just like any other fontpath setting.

I think that's the one that adds True Type support to normal xfs, while xfs-tt is the one that only does True Type; could be mixing those up, though. -- An Thi-Nguyen Le |It is better to have loved and lost than just to have lost.
