Re: Problem with XFree v4.3.0 on RH9

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



   You are missing /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libbitmap.a
which is a required XFree86 module.  It appears that you
have an incomplete or corrupted XFree86 installation.

   I have heard of such problems on RedHat9 (and only RedHat9)
before.  If the server was running previous, you had a
libbitmap.a at one time.  I don't know what has been happening
to this library on RH9.
