I am running SuSE 5.3 and have installed the xfstt TrueType font
server. It works fine if I start it manually and then run
xset fp+ unix/:7100
However I want it to start automatically and am not sure which script
I should run the file from. I saw a post on Usenet that said the font
server run command should be added to the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file.
The post said this would work on RH and Slackware. Not finding an
rc.local file in /etc/rc.d I created it.
I then added a new font path to XF86Config with
FontPath "unix/:7100"
When I ran startx (after a restart as my kids had been in Win98 in the
meantime) it failed with an invalid font path. I ran xfstt& manually
and startx worked, so clearly the rc.local file did not work.
Where should I have added the run commands? I want to add the
following.
# TrueType font installation
/usr/X11R6/bin/xfstt --sync
/usr/X11R6/bin/xfstt &
# End of TrueType font installation
Thanks.
