Re: X problem after update from REX to BO (detailed error messages now)



You didn't say (and I can't figure out from your error messages) whether 
or not you are using AcceleratedX.  If so, you need to go into all of 
your font directories and gunzip the fonts, then ncompress them if you 
have it, then do the mkfontdir step.  AcceleratedX can't do gzipped 
fonts, but it does understand compressed fonts.  If this is your problem, 
I can forward you a message from Xi Graphics support that gives you the 
step by step details.
