Hi David, > > Could not open default font 'fixed' > > You will need at least some bitmap fonts installed > (for "fixed"). The > Xvesa from a default XFree86 4.5.0 build is about > 850kB, not 8MB. You are right, the Xvesa is only about 850K, 8MB was the size of the RPL-image. I'm a bit confused. I thought KDrive used "built-in" fonts, and thus there would be no need to include them. Yet, I see that the program I am trying to change has both fonts inside the RPL image and makes a symlink to a font directory on the RPL server. So clearly externally defined fonts are being used. The fonts in the RPL image are located at: /usr/share/jimbob/fonts/*.fon And the symlink established before the app starts is: ln -s /mnt/rpl_server/fonts /home/jimbob/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts The application on the device uses wxWidgets for it's GUI interface, so perhaps *it* is looking for these fonts at the above two locations instead of the Xvesa server. I doubt either of the font locations I have found are the default for the Kdrive Xvesa server, so I wanted to try and change the default font directory (especially if they are not really "built-in"). I have been googling and reading the cf files trying to find a #define to set the default font directory, do you know if there is one? I looked in to mkfontscale and mkfontdir, and the files they create are not present in the RPL-image. They *are* located at a location based off where the symlink points: /usr/share/jimbob/fonts/misc/fonts.dir /usr/share/jimbob/fonts/misc/fonts.alias /usr/share/jimbob/fonts/misc/<a bunch of font files> So now it really looks like I need to get Xvesa to look for the fonts at: /home/jimbob/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts Thanks! __________________________________ Discover Yahoo!
