Thanks assumed there was probable something more to those in the /proc and /run. But about half are in /usr and K50netconsole are in all the rc.d directories. The projectM ones ls -l /usr/share/projectM/fonts/*.ttf lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 33 Feb 22 08:30 /usr/share/projectM/fonts/VeraMono.ttf -> /usr/share/fonts/TTF/VeraMono.ttf lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 29 Feb 22 08:30 /usr/share/projectM/fonts/Vera.ttf -> /usr/share/fonts/TTF/Vera.ttf Not only the two fonts don't exist, but neither does the TTF directory. Assume at some time the fonts and directory did exist, but a dnf whatprovides finds no reference. Thanks for the quick responses, guess not worth really working at. Had also noticed that some links in /lib64 have ../../lib64?? Assume that is because original files were in different directories, but now directors are sym links to others. I started on a 1963 IBM 1130 with 4K ram and punched cards and 5M disk..
