Hi,
I am trying to compile XFree86 4.1.0 on Solaris8/sparc- specifically for
Xvfb with TrueType fonts. The compile succeeds and I get the Xsun and Xvfb
binaries installed.
I have mangled the site.def file a bit to get Xvfb working... However, the
documentation I am reading, says I need to add
Load "freetype"
to the XF86Config file... However I cannot get this file created as none of
the configuration programs seem be get compiled and installed...
Any help would be greatly appreciated on this...
When I try to add a directory containing the TTF files to the font path, I
get:
hostname.domain.com:user$ xset fp+ /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType/
X Error of failed request: 86
Major opcode of failed request: 51 (X_SetFontPath)
Serial number of failed request: 8
Current serial number in output stream: 10
This directory has fonts.scale, fonts.dir and encodings.dir in it - created
using mkfontdir and ttmkfdir as described in various documents.
So, I am looking at a way to get the Xserver to handle the truetype fonts-
and to get a way to use an XF86Config file.
My site.def file I am using to compile is below. I have not changed any
other config files in the xc/config/cf directory:
Many thanks in advance.
