No, you stated that you had 'tried the "standard solutions" on the Abiword web site but they do not work or the files do not exist on a SuSe 8.0 install"' The URI I gave points to the LTSP web site, not from the web site of Abiword. You did not mention abiwordfont.txt in the post I responded to. > /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 does not exist but /etc/X11/XF86Config does > exist and changes could be made to this file if one ignores the > line in the file that says "VaX generated file" This only concerns X on the server side, so it modifying it will not help the clients. X 4 and higer uses /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 by default, earlier versions uses /etc/X11/XF86Config. > /etc/rc.d/init.d/xfs does not exist but /etc/init.d/xfs does exist > but the abiwordfont.txt file said to change two lines that do not exist in > this file Those changes are only necessary if xfs is configured not to listen on port 7100. To find out if yours is, run "netstat ap | grep font" If the output contains 7100, like this one, xfs DOES already listen on port 7100. unix 3 [ ] STREAM CONNECTED 38115950 /tmp/.font-unix/fs7100 If you need to change, /etc/init.d/xfs the file to edit. > the only other xfs file I found was a binary file (executable) > > /etc/X11/fs/config and /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf files exist and could > be changed as shown in the abiwordfont.txt file Good. > Restarting the X font server as stated in the abiwordfont.txt file did not > work i.e. > service xfs stop > service xfs start > error msg was : service: command not found If you don't know how to restart daemons on your system, a reboot will have the same effect. > Let me restate: I need someone who is running SuSe 8.0 and has Abiword > running on the client to tell me which files were changed to get Abiword > ( using the Abiword > fonts ) to work. Some understanding of the things at issue can hopefully compensate for my lack of SuSe experiences, but no guarantees ;-) -- Hans Ekbrand
