My X hanged when I select the font -*-*-*-*-*-*-15-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1 in xfontsel with nvidia drivers (with nv driver, xfontsel showed some garbage but X didn't hang). This font is from xfonts-cronyx-misc package. It seems it is broken. Look at Debian bug #170413. After upgrading xfonts-cronyx-misc to version 2.3.8-4, everything work fine. -- Best regards, Aleksey Cheusov. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
