Er, I more meant that the default config that *new* installs of X creates puts the Type1 line at the bottom. As far as I know, it will still cause problems if it's not at the bottom. > Also, Rob's guide assumes that fontconfig is installed.

I'll update it to mention that you don't need to worry about fontconfig on stable, thanks. > The debconf message for defoma told me to put > /var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType as a FontPath in > XF86Config-4 but my /var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfon t-conf.d/dirs/TrueType/ > directory contains nothing but the file, fonts.dir, at the moment. > This doesn't seem correct. Have you installed any truetype font packages from Debian? > Is this bunk until fontconfig is installed? No. If you don't use fontconfig, ignore it completely.
