Hi,


Well actually that worked (editing the XF86Config file). But now i have the same error when tyring to run X:

"
_FontTransSocketINETConnect: Can't get address for Join/
failed to set default font path '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/:unscaled,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/freefont/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/sharefont/,tcp/Join/:7101'
Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
".

I guess i have to disable true type fonts... :-(
