My XF86Config-4 file has lines mentioning the font > server and some initial paths. Your config file should have a line like: FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc" If it has that line (or equivalent, since there's at least one other path that points to the same location), make sure you have the fonts. You should, since "x-window-system" should pull in alot of other packages (like "x-fonts-base"). If you find all of those are true, then perhaps the fonts.* files weren't generated properly. Try --> "$ dpkg-reconfigure x-fonts-base" -- Eric G. Miller <egm2@jps.net>
