I love a good virtual beer.
Since the arm typically shares the same endianness as x86, I build them
on the x86 native.

Thanks, I love a good virtual beer.
As for fonts, truetype (via Xft) is going to be the one-true-way I hope.
The font quality on digital lcd displays has to be seen to be believed.
See the handhelds.org project for Xft patches to common X utils like
rxvt...
But the old X fonts are going to be with us for a long time.
Since the arm typically shares the same endianness as x86, I build them
on the x86 native.
I hope to be working out of current XFree86 cvs this week.
