I had the same error on my RH 8 re "cannot find default font fixed". As Mr Bandel said, your font named 'fixed' is missing. Re-installing XFree86-base-fonts rpm fixed that for me. Check your XFree86 logs though, when this happened to me /var/lib/xkb was gone too (I think the log actually mentioned "/etc/X11/xkb/compiled" which is a sym-link to /var/lib/xkb). Reinstalling the XFree86 rpm replaced that. The bad news is that this kept reoccurring every few days on my system. Never did find out why. After a new install of RH 9 failed with hardware trouble warnings I installed Mandrake 9.1 and it's been fine ever since. Sorry I didn't have time to figure out the root of the problem. Maybe 'root' was the problem! :^) IanS _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://smtp.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
