Hello all,
I just tried to install xorg 7.0 according to a BLFS page I found on
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~dj/blfs-xorg7/x/xorg7.html
There are (too) MANY steps, but anyhow, at the end, I got a stupid
problem with
...couldn't find fixed font...
However, when I do a fc-list, the fixed font is mentioned.
Can anyone help me with this one?
Jan, you are treading on shaky ground yet. But not to worry, it works
here, however, not many people will be able to assist without a problem
description. I don't mean to pick, but the description you've given is
about equivalent to "that metal part under the hood" when speaking to
your mechanic. :-) What exactly couldn't find Fixed? Is this during
compilation of a package or at runtime? Best is a copy and paste of the
error message with 10 or so lines of context.
Doesn't seem like those instructions are specifying the fontdir for each font.
For example for the type1 fonts:
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-fontdir=/usr/share/fonts/Type1
The way those instructions are set up, I think the fonts will go to
/usr/X11R7/lib/fonts
Correct...well, /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/fonts...which should be a symlink to
usr/share/fonts with the current instructions.
