Does anyone know where the documentation is that tells what directories fonts can be stored for use with X? When I put the fonts in: "/usr/share/fonts/local/TrueType" I get an error when I start up X. If I put the fonts in: "/usr/share/fonts/local" I do not get an error when I start up X. The error message is: No fonts found; this probably means that the fontconfig library is not correctly configured. You may need to edit the fonts.conf configuration file. More information about fontconfig can be found in the fontconfig(3) manual page and on http://fontconfig.org The sequence I use to add fonts to my system is: FONTDIR="/usr/share/fonts/local" mkdir -p ${FONTDIR} cp /tmp/fonts/*.ttf ${FONTDIR} ttmkfdir -d ${FONTDIR} -o ${FONTDIR}/fonts.scale /usr/X11R6/bin/mkfontdir ${FONTDIR} mkfontdir ${FONTDIR} fc-cache ${FONTDIR} chkfontpath -a ${FONTDIR} service xfs reload Thanks Dan Barnes __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
