Hi all,

My XF86Config says:

FontPath        "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType/"
FontPath        "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled"
FontPath        "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled"
FontPath        "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled"
FontPath        "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/"
FontPath        "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/"
FontPath        "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/"
FontPath        "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/"
FontPath        "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/"

And if I do ls /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts I get:


patrick@phasar:~$ ls /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts
100dpi  75dpi  Speedo  TrueType  Type1  encodings  misc  util

Yet galeon and Evolution use horrible jagged fonts.

It happened to me once; this is my XF86Config file:
Section "Files"
	RgbPath      "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"
	ModulePath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules"
	FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/"
	FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/"
	FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/"
	FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/"
	FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/"
	FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/"
	FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType/"
	FontPath     "/usr/share/fonts/truetype/openoffice/"
EndSection

Section "Module"
	Load  "pex5"
	Load  "dri"
	Load  "record"
	Load  "glx"
	Load  "extmod"
	Load  "dbe"
	Load  "xie"
	Load  "xtt"
EndSection


What modules to load do you have?
Once I had "bitmap" module loaded, that was the source of the problem. The above module section is all right; the fonts are displayed correctly. BTW, I use X 4.1.x.
