Sparc newbie question (again)
I have the machine running great and now I am about to tackle getting X
installed. I downloaded all the packages I needed (I think) and I can get
X started (as root). I can also run "twm". When I attempt to run
afterstep it fails.
I receive a message that says:
PexExtensionInit: Couldn't open default PEX font file Roman_M
I have the following installed:
$ ls -l /usr/lib/X11/fonts/
total 35
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 5120 May 12 16:27 100dpi
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 6144 May 13 09:19 100dpi-il2
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 5120 May 12 16:27 75dpi
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 6144 May 13 09:19 75dpi-il2
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 May 13 09:19 PEX
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 May 12 16:27 Speedo

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 2048 May 12 16:27 misc
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 May 13 09:19 misc-il2
$ ls -l /usr/lib/X11/fonts/PEX/
total 30
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13616 Feb 23 03:00 Roman.phont
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13616 Feb 23 03:00 Roman_M.phont
Is this a permissions thing? I haven't been able to figure it out. On a
side note, X won't start at all for non-root users, it gives "no screens
found". I researched this problem and found that it might be permissions
so I gave write permissions on /dev/kbd,/dev/fb0,/dev/mouse, and
/dev/sunmouse but X still fails.
Can anyone help?
TIA.
