Re: can't startx after xorg upgrade: could not open default font 'fixed'
Hi Dejan, Thanks for the help. It appear it was a font-misc-misc and font-cursor-misc related problem. Regards, Etienne --- Dejan Lesjak [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Etienne Robillard wrote: Nice.

Quoting Etienne Robillard [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi eculp, Yes -- I'm gettting the same results here on 7.0-CURRENT. I've compiled with gcc 3.4.6 and trying to start /usr/local/bin/X returns a segmentation fault and the message you've described below. I dont know if that could help but maybe you could try recompiling x11-fonts/xorg-fonts and see what it does ? Thanks in advance for letting me know once you've found a proper solution.. :) Hello Etienne, After bringing all 600+ ports on this workstation up to date taking advantage of the -P option to portupgrade, I was still getting the same message so I bit the bullet and reran portupgrade -rRfpy x11/xorg and maybe 12 hours later, Xorg all works beautifully plus I have local packages for upgrading my other machines. I should have probably done that from the beginning but who knows, I'm vert happy and 7.2 and the localbase change, xorg 7.2 seems to have much better drivers. Thanks to all who made this very very complex upgrade possible. Considering the more than 200 ports that were rebuilt with portupgrade -rRfpy x11/xorg with no errors, it is pretty remarkable.

Re: can't startx after xorg upgrade: could not open default font 'fixed'
Nice. Which GCC version did you used for compiling all theses ports ? I don't get anymore a segfault but still gets that fatal error message about the missing font 'fixed'... It looks like the /usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/misc path gets ignored by the fc-cache utility, even after having upgraded the x11-fonts/xorg-fonts-miscbitmaps port, which is kinda odd btw. Anyway, I guess thats my problem since I've not bothered following the steps in mergebase.sh nor did I've used the xorg metaport. The funny thing about this 7.2 upgrade quest is that I didnt even plan to go into it :) Cheers, Etienne --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello Etienne, After bringing all 600+ ports on this workstation up to date taking advantage of the -P option to portupgrade, I was still getting the same message so I bit the bullet and reran portupgrade -rRfpy x11/xorg and maybe 12 hours later, Xorg all works beautifully plus I have local packages for upgrading my other machines.

I've compiled with gcc 3.4.6 and trying to start /usr/local/bin/X returns a segmentation fault and the message you've described below. Thanks Etienne. My case is a bit different. I'm first testing the upgrade on a stable box. FreeBSD HOME.encontacto.net 6.2-STABLE FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE #258: Mon May 21 08:02:18 CDT 2007 so no compiler to worry about, AFAIK. I dont know if that could help but maybe you could try recompiling x11-fonts/xorg-fonts and see what it does ? I did that but forgot to add it to the list but JIC, I did it again, just now and still no cigar.
