They are recognized as I have gotten a message that at least it is trying to load some of the fonts as follows:
BScreen::LoadStyle(): couldn't load font '-artwiz-mintsmild-medium-r-normal--8-80-75-75-p-90-iso646.1991-irv' BScreen::LoadStyle(): couldn't load font '-artwiz-snap-medium-r-normal--10-100-75-75-p-90-iso646.1991-irv' BScreen::LoadStyle(): couldn't load font '-artwiz-snap-medium-r-normal--10-100-75-75-p-90-iso646.1991-irv' BScreen::LoadStyle(): couldn't load font '-artwiz-snap-medium-r-normal--10-100-75-75-p-90-iso646.1991-irv' This is the output of chkfontpath --list: # chkfontpath --list Current directories in font path: 1: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled 2: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled 3: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled 4: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled 5: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 6: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo 7: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/mdk:unscaled 8: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/mozilla-fonts:unscaled 9: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/artwiz-fonts:unscaled /* <--new fonts */ 10: /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1 11: /usr/share/fonts/ttf/decoratives 12: /usr/share/fonts/ttf/western I'v tried them as just normal and :unscaled. I'm not sure if they are truetype. For some reason they can't be loaded meaning there is something further I must do. They are fonts for the fluxbox and blackbox window managers. -- "Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most." -- Ozzy Osbourne Chad Young Registered Linux User #195191 @ http://counter.li.org ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Linux localhost 2.4.18-pre9 #2 Thu Feb 7 21:14:23 AST 2002 i686 unknown 7:20pm up 7:24, 2 users, load average: 0.83, 0.57, 0.28
