hello

Does anyone have any wisdom to offer about getting the XF86Config to see
fixed fonts? When I try running startx it bombs out saying it can't
find default font 'fixed'. I've tried setting many different versions
of FontPath, including :

FontPath "usr/share/fonts/ISO8859-2"
FontPath "usr/share/fonts/ISO8859-2/misc"

entries like

FontPath "usr/share/lib/X11/fonts/{etc}"

won't work because there is no fonts directory in my X11R6 (4.01)
directory. I compiled X 4.01 from source using a 2.4.0-test10 kernel
and synced modules. The installation was a CS 1.2.1.

any ideas, anyone? I've read the documentation about fonts in the X11R6
lib; it's interesting but offers no fixes.

I'd (especially) like to thank grifter|ppc for all his help. . . .

philippe
