Hello,
If I try to upgrade x11-common in Debian Sid, I get this message:
x11-common conflicts with xfs-xtt (<= 1.4.1.xf430-6)
and xfs-xtt is to be removed. I was wondering, is this something that is
going to be resolved with a newer version of xfs-xtt or must xfs-xtt be
removed to upgrade
Ok, I ended up downloading the xfs-xtt package and re-installing it with
dpkg, then removing it with apt. dpkg complained when I reinstalled
that the old files were bad, but it overwrote them safely.
Now my fonts are back to normal, so I guess it was xfs-xtt that was
causing the trouble

That is correct.

In an attempt to correct it, I tried to reconfigure xfs-xtt, and got
this error:

So I tried to remove it with:
$ apt-get -V -q -f remove xfs-xtt

xfs-xtt is better for very big, unicode fonts (hint: most far east ones).
If you like configuring fonts, it allows you to do some font transforms as
well.

Both worked fine for me.
I believe that (xfs + xfstt) use less memory than xfs-xtt,

Good Luck.
It is said there that you must get the fonts separately for xfstt to
work. Can you use the fonts from windows? If so, how do you do it? Or
otherwise, how do you get the fonts?

I have Xfs-xtt installed. It starts at bootup, but also seems to startup a
second copy when I start X. Anyone else having this problem? Any Idea what's
causing the second copy to start?

You need to remove the entry for port 7101 from /etc/X11/XF86Config.
xfs-xtt replaces both xfs and xfstt with a single font server, so it
will be running on the "standard" xfs port (7100), rather than xfstt's.
X will definitely refuse to start if told to use a font server whi

First, you may want to change "unix/:7101" to "inet/127.0.0.1:7101", if you

Perhaps either xfs-xtt of mkttfdir expect font files to have a lowercase
file extention. Remeber .MP3 is different than .mp3, and .JPG is different

t the full path is /etc/X11/xfs/config - you may need to

The command "xset +fp unix/:7100" indicates to use Unix domain sockets
(faster than TCP sockets for local communications, xfs-xtt should
support both) on port 7100. That should be all you need.

I really have no idea what I'm doing so I'd appreciate it if you guys would

I installed xfs-xtt.
