Here with F7 and GNOME I could not stop xfs because fonts would be missing afterwards. E.g. Emacs fails fatally: $ emacs No fonts match `-*-fixed-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-100-iso8859-15' $ xterm Warning: Cannot convert string "nil2" to type FontStruct xterm: unable to open font "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso8859-15", trying "fixed".... And stopping a running xfs sort of "kills" X until the X server is restarted. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
