Working OK for me here: mizar:[~] Xnest :1 error opening security policy file /usr/lib/xserver/SecurityPolicy Couldn't get keyboard.

xnest 1.1.1-0ubuntu6 seems to correctly look in /usr/share/fonts/X11; perhaps you are running a different version. ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed => Needs Info -- Xnest crashes on start https://launchpad.net/bugs/56221 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
