Hi I am running debain etch amd64, using the urxvt package for my terminal. I have 2 machines in my network and for practice I have setup xfs so that I only have to load up my fonts once.
My second machine has a tcp://xfs:7100 line in its xorg.conf (as does the machine with xfs but using unix sockets instead) now my problem lies when i try to run the urxvt and set the default font to a16. I found the font with xlsfont - this produce a list of font available DISPLAY=:0.0 xlsfonts | grep a16 a16 when i run urxvt -fn a16 on the machine that has xfs it runs fine, when I run it on the other machine it errors out telling me it can't load the base font. when I investitaged and tried xlsfonts -l | grep a16 I got no lines back. I am at a bit of a loss to work out how fonts work how do I find out what the base font for a16 is ? so that I can try and find out why I can't find it on the othe machine ! Thanks Alex
