Your X-server is configured to require a font server yet one isn't running. The most foolproof way to solve it is to put explicit font paths in the XF86Config file so that it doesn't need a font server. Put lines like the following in the Section "Files" in your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file. FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo" Or you can restart your font server as described at: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/ref-guide/s1-x-fonts.html ie. "service xfs reload" Mark. _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
