The long term fix is deleting dtterm, but you knew that. 8-) In the shorter term, the -dt-interface* fonts that got accidentally lost are coming back in later builds. 6843567 100dpi font is missing fonts.aliases.all http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6843567 6845279 Fonts.alias.all missing from SUNWxwfnt package http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6845279 6845246 F3bitmaps fonts.alias.all file missing from X packages http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6845246 6852311 Lucida Sans F3bitmaps have gone missing again http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6852311 6849729 After installing X Nevada B117 X86 packages on SNV116, the font on the dtlogin screen become obscure http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6849729 You may be able to get them back in the immediate term by installing SUNWxwfnt from an older build, and if using Xsun you may also need to do "xset fp+ /usr/X11/lib/X11/fonts/F3bitmaps" in some builds. -- -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersmith at sun.com Sun Microsystems, Inc. - X Window System Engineering
