X can't init font path elements?
Hello.
I have a little problem with a sid box here: since 4.1.0-8, it looks
like X can't work with some of my fonts.
It complains about:
Could not init font path element /usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi, removing from
list!
Could not init font path element /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc, 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/misc, removing from
list!
Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
And stops.
So, I've checked /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and it has:
FontPath "unix/:7100" # local fontserver
# if the local font server has problems, we can fall
# back on these
#FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1"
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo"
I also reinstalled xfonts-base, xfonts-75dpi, xfonts-base-transcoded,
xfonts-75dpi-transcoded, xfonts-scalable, and still no luck.
I am now gradually upgrading packages to 4.1.0-9 (I only didn't upgrade
the xserver ,xclients and xlibs yet, but I already upgraded all fonts,
the font srever and xutils), but the same thing happens.
Anyway... Any ideas?
Thanks,
J.
