gz is only on one file. It just uncompresses the bitmapped fonts. The problem I try to solve is that freetype before 2.1.3 cannot read compressed bitmapped fonts. So either upgrade (easiest, and stable for me), or uncompress the fonts. ( cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi; gunzip *.gz ) and the same for the other dirs. To recompress them in case it doesn't work just do : ( cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi; gzip *.pcf ) Paul -- Paul de Vrieze Researcher Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://www.devrieze.net
