I know how to set up "xfstt" for true type fonts, but I
see that Debian 2.2 uses "xfs" as a default font server.
How do I set up "xfs" to use my truetype fonts? This is
what I did:
1) Installed the fttools package.
2) Created /usr/share/fonts/truetype
3) Copied my 1132 fonts to the above directory.
4) Ran the "mkttfdir" utility. Shouldn't there
be a "ttmkfdir" utility??? Where is it???
5) Added "/usr/share/fonts/truetype" to the
/etc/X11/XF86Config file.
6) Re-started the "xfs" daemon.
7) Re-started X
That is when I got the error:
Fatal server error.
could not open default font 'fixed'
What did I do wrong? What am I missing? Where is the
"ttmkfdir" utility?
I know "xfstt" works but I would rather use "xfs" since it
is the default installed server.
