[newbie] X Font Server Problem

2003-03-17 Thread Matt Mahoney
Is what my problem is that I have somehow lost my fixed font in my
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc folder which is preventing x from
starting.

Does anyone know where to get this font? I cannot find it anywhere.

Nothing will delete that font - but if for some reason your Xconfigs are
mucked up, then X  won't start - and might give you font errors. There
are a few /tmp directories created when X is run or configured, and you
might want to check to see if they're either there, or not there. Have
you tried a reboot?

Overall, here's some things to ask yourself:

What has changed or been added or reconfigured since this last worked
properly?

Have you changed or added hardware?

Have you deleted any files (fonts aren't that easy to find and delete)
