i am trying to run scrollz irc client in an xterm, with a colorful ansi art
script loading that produces very eye catching graphics. (the reason i have
always used scrollz for irc client).
this is something that has always worked before, all i ever had to do was
install the xfonts-dosemu package, and use one of the fonts that draws those
characters correctly.
there are a few of them.
anyways, upon a recent reinstall of etch with upgrade to sid, i am running
into this stupid problem of UTF8 and whatever it is that breaks my program
from displaying correctly in an xterm environment. i tried changing my
locales to ISO-8859-1, but that doesn't fix it.
can someone please tell me what to do to make this work again?
i had posted to this list previously, but received no information on this
problem, can someone advise me as to what i should do?
im beginning to wonder if my fonts are broken or something, as im getting
oddities about fonts not being loaded from my X session logs.

/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType
why is the config looking for fonts there in the first place?
i also installed and am using xfs and added the line manually to the config
file.
any info would be appreciated.
thanx
