I tried Ctrl+click (any button) on an xterm window, to bring up the menu (which I never used before; after reading a recent thread about X (in)security, I was trying to access the secure mode for password entering).
This crashes xterm. The logs: Warning: Cannot convert string "-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal--*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*" to type FontStruct Warning: Unable to load any usable ISO8859 font Error: Aborting: no font found Google shows that this "adobe-etc" problem is recurrent, but no clear solution. My /etc/fonts/conf.d, in case it is relevant: 10-autohint.conf 40-nonlatin.conf 65-nonlatin.conf 10-scale-bitmap-fonts.conf 45-latin.conf 69-unifont.conf 11-lcdfilter-default.conf 49-sansserif.conf 80-delicious.conf 20-unhint-small-vera.conf 50-user.conf 90-synthetic.conf 30-metric-aliases.conf 51-local.conf README 30-urw-aliases.conf 60-latin.conf TIA Jorge Almeida
