Re: [LI] Sucess with X
Hi
Why are you not using the X font server which is there is recent version
of RedHat, thats why you have to define many font paths which can be only
in a line as shown below.
type "setup"
select -> System Services
and see that you have a '*' against xfs and xfstt(for true type fonts).
----------------------
# Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (they are concatenated together)
# By default, Red Hat 6.0 and later now use a font server independent of
# the X server to render fonts.
FontPath "unix/:-1"
---------------------------------see only the above line-----------
