Make sure your xkb has the right symlinks... Something like: ln -s /var/lib/xkb /etc/X11/xkb/compiled You can also define your fontpath manually with Font Path in your Xconfig, instead of using the font server. It's fairly easy to install new fonts...check out these links: XKB: http://www.xfree86.org/4.4.0/XKB-Config.html Fonts: http://www.xfree86.org/4.4.0/fonts.html -----Original Message----- From: kentropy@xxxxxxxxx [mailto:kentropy@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, December 06, 2004 9:25 AM To: xfree86 Subject: could not open default font 'fixed' Hello, I am trying to build XFree86 from scratch, but I get many problems about fonts.
