I can't say why the default FONT configuration of st wouldn't work in Fedora, but it could be that the exact font sizes requested are not there. > I tested to configure st with > #define FONT "-*-terminus-medium-r-*-*-8-*-*-*-*-*-*-*" > witch is the font I use in dwm (and it works, dwm find the font). > Same output error. As far as I know terminus starts with 12 pixel height, which would explain why you won't get a font there. You might want to replace the 8 with a 12 there and try again. You could also use xfontsel (if installed) to get a font pattern that results in the font you want to use. Dwm actually uses a fallback font in case it can't find the font you specify. This might be why you don't experience problems there. -- Eckehard Berns
