They can't be, they are sitting in /opt/xf86-corefonts/ as windows self extracting cabinet files. If there is a linux font server that can access them in that form, I am not aware of it. ;) ls /opt/xf86-corefonts /opt/xf86-corefonts/andale32.exe /opt/xf86-corefonts/arial32.exe /opt/xf86-corefonts/arialb32.exe /opt/xf86-corefonts/comic32.exe /opt/xf86-corefonts/courie32.exe /opt/xf86-corefonts/eula.txt /opt/xf86-corefonts/georgi32.exe /opt/xf86-corefonts/impact32.exe /opt/xf86-corefonts/times32.exe /opt/xf86-corefonts/trebuc32.exe /opt/xf86-corefonts/verdan32.exe /opt/xf86-corefonts/webdin32.exe The script extracts the files, puts them in the system's font path, adds them to the fontserver's search path, and runs fc-cache. You really want to run the install script. :) - -- - -Michael pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/gpgkey.txt Red Hat Linux 7.{2,3} in 8M of RAM: http://www.rule-project.org/ - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9szg1n/07WoAb/SsRAqw1AJ4yeMUND352ti6wrJ9GpIerH9Fj3QCgldLW jdXZBB1sR9P7cV+l3jP7tsY= =cSio -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
