I get this error trying to start xdm 1.0.1-1 -
[...]
Could not init font path element /usr/share/fonts/X11, removing from
list!
Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
[...]
I think all the necessary xfonts packages are installed -
ii xfonts-100dpi 1.0.0-1 100 dpi fonts for X
ii xfonts-75dpi 1.0.0-1 100 dpi fonts for X
ii xfonts-base 1.0.0-1 standard fonts for
X
ii xfonts-encodings 1.0.0-1 Encodings for
X.Org fonts
ii xfonts-utils 1.0.0-1 X Window System
font utility programs
Also /usr/share/fonts/X11 exists & contains some font stuff -
tor:~# ls -l /usr/share/fonts/X11
total 43
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 13328 Mar 2 16:10 100dpi
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 13328 Mar 2 16:09 75dpi
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 1384 Mar 2 15:54 encodings
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 15880 Mar 2 16:04 misc
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 600 Mar 2 15:54 util
tor:~#
Can anyone tell me a bit more about what this error means? Can anyone
help me solve it - should I file a bug against xdm 1.0.1-1 - or should
I wait for xdm 1.0.1-1 to reach unstable?
Many thanks - Jack
