xprt-xprintorg may fail, too. The problem is that XFree86 has code which was never ported to the old X.org tree (e.g. anything based on <= X11R6.6; xprt-xprintorg is currently a X11R6.6 derivate. The next major version will be based on X11R6.7.1 and includes the same fallback code as Xfree86). BTW: Xprint release 009.001 has a "diag" option to find the fonts.dir/fonts.alias entry which causes this mess... once the Debian package has been updated to release 009.001 try % /etc/init.d/xprint diag # and check the output... :) ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) [EMAIL PROTECTED] \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 7950090 (;O/ \/ \O;)
