I've been working on true type fonts and can't get them to work on XF86-4.3. I'm using Paul Smith's TrueType Fonts on Debian XFree86 4.x Systems at http://www.paulandlesley.org/linux/xfree4_tt.html#NETSCAPE. I'm sure I've configured it the way he recommends, but when I run $ xset fp+ /usr/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType I get the following:
X Error of failed request: 86 Major opcode of failed request: 51 (X_SetFontPath) Serial number of failed request: 9 Current serial number in output stream: 11 I will attach my XF86 Config file, I'm not sure the FreeType module is loading properly. If I try to generate another XF86Config file using xf86config, I can't get it working, there seem to be to many errors. I'm running woody, and am current with updates. Any help is appreciated. thanks --
