New troubles with X
Today I updated my sid machine, just as I do every day. There were some
new X packages and they seemed to install cleanly. I even restarted X
just to double check, and everything ran fine. So this is probably
something I foolishly brought on myself.
I was reading the list and there were a few posts on ext3. This
reminded me that I've been meaning to try that out since my cat keeps
pulling out my power cords. So I downloaded kernel-2.4.12 and the ac3
patch (I was previously running 2.4.10), enabled ext3 support and compiled.
No problems there. Then I rebooted and enabled journaling with
'tune2fs -j /dev/hdb1`, again there were apparently no problems. When I
startx I get these errors (pardon long lines):
Could not init font path element /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc, removing from list!
Could not init font path element /usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled, removing from list!
Could not init font path element /usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled, removing from list!
Could not init font path element /usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi, removing from list!
Could not init font path element /usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi, removing from list!
Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
Oddly the speedo and type1 fonts seem to be exempt from these errors.
Anyone have a clue? I'll post my entire XFree86.log on request.
Peace,
Rob
