I found > /home/user/.Xauthority but I can' read it The last time I used .Xdefaults it was named .Xresources:) If there isn't one, create it. $ cat ~/.Xresources .xterm.vt100.deleteIsDEL: true .xterm.vt100.eightBitOutput: true .xterm.vt100.font: -xos4-terminus-bold-r-normal--24-240-72-72-c-120-koi8-r The '.xterm.vt100.font' is what you need to change to use another default font. Naturally, you can use xfontsel to generate a `fontline' for you. Be sure to put an `xrdb ~/.Xresources' line in your .xsession/.xinitrc/whatever X startup script. Changes will be applied on next login (to apply them earlier, run the xrdb command manually).
