Summary: kdmgreet crashes when doing /etc/init.d/kdm restart and
xfstt is running and its usage is configured in
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4
Product: kdm
Version: unspecified
Platform: Debian stable
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: ossi kde org
ReportedBy: a.licher mbn de
Version:(using KDE KDE 3.2.0)
Installed from:Debian stable Packages
OS: Linux
I want to use TrueType-Fonts under KDE 3.2 on Debian woody (KDE 3.2 binary
packges downloaded and installed from the official KDE download servers).
I did the following according to http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/TT-Debian-3.html
(TrueType under Debian Mini-HOWTO):
1. apt-get install xfstt
# install run xfstt
2. copied some Windows TrueType fonts to /usr/share/fonts/truetype
(all font files have lowercase names)
# fonts to font directory
3. chmod 0444 /usr/share/fonts/truetype/*
# set correct rights
4. /etc/init.d/xfstt force-reload
# reload font server config
5. /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
Section Files
FontPath unix/:7101 # -- xfstt
FontPath unix/:7100
...
EndSection
# added FontPath for xfstt
5. /etc/init.d/kdm restart
# restart kdm
6. kdmgreet #crashes# with window displaying the KDE crash bomb,
telling that kdmgreet caused the SIGSEGV signal ...
When stopping xfstt, everything runs very well again.
