[newbie] X Windows / KDE Problems

1999-08-23 Thread Rick Knospler

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?

Why did you run XF86Config? if you just ran a rpm -Uvh on the kde rpms, you
didn't need to reconfigure X. Try running Xconfigurator instead of XF86Config.

It's Xconfigurator. Upper case X, lower case c.

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
