Hi all,
I copied some ttf fonts from Windows to
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/ttfonts
Then I did as root:
[root@hal1 ttfonts]# ttmkfdir -o fonts.scale
Then these messages appeared:
unknown font foundry code
unknown font foundry code FROG
unknown font foundry code SFT
I ignored them.
then I did: #mkfontdir
as i have read in the Font-Deuglification-Howto.
I also restarted xfs and X
Then X refused to start,it couldnt access the font server.
I got messages about broken Sockets,and xfs didnt run anymore.
I think xfs crashed.
Then I removed all added fonts and repeated the ttmkfdir and
mkfontdir commands.
I still got the above error messages "unknown font foundry code..."
and X wouldnt start.
Then I disabled the ..../ttfontdir directory in the configuration
file of xfs.
Now X starts again,and therefore I'm sure,there is an error with
my true type fonts.
Now I dont know how to proceed with this.
Maybe something is missing or wrong.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Peter
