[newbie] X Windows / KDE Problems
I upgraded my system with the KDE.RPM's from the ftp.linux-mandrake.com site.. Ran XF86Config and set up everything as it was.. Ran startx and now get an error about not being able to find Font Server.. Everything was perfect before upgrading.. Any ideas? -Rick

It's Xconfigurator. Upper case X, lower case c. On Mon, 23 Aug 1999, you wrote: What is the file called for XConfigurator? I can't seem to locate it..

If you don't want to fix the font server you can edit /etc/X11/XF86Config and change the FontPath to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc -tj On Mon, 23 Aug 1999, you wrote: The error I get is failure to set default font path..
