I am using xorg not xfree86. Are these installation packages made only for xfree86? Of course I uninstalled the previous nvidia driver, so now x won't run and I can't reinstall the old nvidia driver because it wants a different GCC version. I guess I should go and google up some info on nvidia for xorg - but perhaps a fellow lister knows the answer already.

Outside x, it says "cant open display ''" That is unusual, I think. "xrdb -query" returns more than 400 lines of output when I run it here. (It is only supposed to work from within X.) You could try echo "Xft.antialias: 1" | xrdb -merge echo "Xft.hinting: 1" | xrdb -merge echo "Xft.hintstyle: hintfull" | xrdb -merge echo "Xft.rgba: none" | xrdb -merge and check if the settings are accepted. (If you meant to say that "xrdb -query | grep Xft" returns no output then the Xft settings are not there.) > So this bug is still alive and kicking then? It's so bizarre. KDE is really > up the creek. I'm getting to know enlightenment though :) It is difficult to say if this is still the old bug. If I recall correctly, the old bug went away if fonts.conf, qtrc and the xrdb output where all OK. So it might be a new issue or something that is specific to your particular configuration. -- Regards, Florian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
