I just did a fresh reinstall of potato, then upgraded to woody. I didn't have a working X configuration, just changed my sources list and did dist-upgrade.
Now when I try to connect to X my screen hangs with a little white space at the top and then gives me the error message: Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed' I checked the error messages in /var/log/xf86 and it suggested running mkfontdir in 3 different directories, which I did. Still didn't work. I tried changing the font path in XF86Config-4 as suggested here in the list and that didn't help. Any suggestions? Thanks dale
