The defoma-ization of it broke various things. I got most of the functionality back by removing references in my XF86Config to /usr/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType and replacing it with a reference to /var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType However, the names of the fonts are still messed up; see the bugs for msttcorefonts.

Re: TrueTypes suddenly aren't displayed but still shown in xlsfonts
I had a similar problem. It turned out that not all of my FontPath statements in XF86Config were valid. I don't know why one of them suddenly became invalid, but deleting the offending line fixed things for me. --Tom Joseph On Sat, 2002-09-21 at 14:37, Christian Hammers wrote: > Hello > > xlsfonts and several other apps show correctly my msttfcorefonts font: > -monotype-arial-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-15 > Sadly no app can actually use it. gtkfontsel e.g. says "The selected font > is not available". xlsfont and some apps say: "Warning: Missing charsets > in String to FontSet conversation" and "Warning: Unable to load any > usable fontset". > > How to get my ttf back? > > I tried to completely reinstall all X11 and font packages and even upgraded > from sid to the 4.2beta debs without any changes. > I have of course loaded the "freetype" and no "xtt" module.

TrueTypes suddenly aren't displayed but still shown in xlsfonts
Hello xlsfonts and several other apps show correctly my msttfcorefonts font: -monotype-arial-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-15 Sadly no app can actually use it. gtkfontsel e.g. says "The selected font is not available". xlsfont and some apps say: "Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversation" and "Warning: Unable to load any usable fontset". How to get my ttf back? I tried to completely reinstall all X11 and font packages and even upgraded from sid to the 4.2beta debs without any changes. I have of course loaded the "freetype" and no "xtt" module. I'm using the nvidia display driver for my Geforce2 if that matters. Already upgraded this thing, too. But it worked long time before. The failure started at about 1 week ago after I restarted my computers after week or so uptime and several apt-get -u upgrades... A hint could be that I find nothing about freetype in xdpyinfo although it loads fine according to /var/log/XFree86.0.log. For which string should I look in xdpyinfo? bye, -christian-

I had a similar problem. It turned out that not all of my FontPath statements in XF86Config were valid. I don't know why one of them suddenly became invalid, but deleting the offending line fixed things for me. --Tom Joseph On Sat, 2002-09-21 at 14:37, Christian Hammers wrote: > Hello > > xlsfonts and several other apps show correctly my msttfcorefonts font: > -monotype-arial-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-15 > Sadly no app can actually use it. gtkfontsel e.g. says "The selected font > is not available". xlsfont and some apps say: "Warning: Missing charsets > in String to FontSet conversation" and "Warning: Unable to load any > usable fontset". > > How to get my ttf back? > > I tried to completely reinstall all X11 and font packages and even upgraded > from sid to the 4.2beta debs without any changes. > I have of course loaded the "freetype" and no "xtt" module.
