Re: Getting X-Windows to recognize Truetype fonts...
after you make links to the ttf fonts you need to run "xfstt --sync"
you then get a message somthing like (i don't remmember exactly)
" xfstt syncing in directory ..." (the directory depends on the version
you have installed, it moved betwin the hamm version and the sink version
- but you need the fonts to apear in that directory)
also, instead of the "xset +fp unix/:7101&" you can also add to your
XF86config with the other fonts the line "FontPath "unix/:7101".
that worked for me at list.
hope it helps
