I have a new arch install with basic X environment added and successfully tested. Following instructions here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fonts I installed "terminus" fonts, created ~/.xinitrc file and added to it the following lines as advised: xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/local xset fp rehash After this X fails to start with error: "/usr/bin/startx: Line 127: hostname: command not found" When ~/.xinitrc file deleted, X starts as before just fine. Could somebody help me to figure out what am I doing wrong, please?
