Following Kris's directions, the upgrade went smoothly. However, after I used Xorg -configure to create a new xorg.conf, when I attempted to test it, it reported that the fixed font could not be found. After reading the X11 list, it seems that others have had this problem. I reran fc-cache, and it does not cache any of the fixed fonts. I had to run by hand mkfontdirs in each of the directories in /usr/local/lib/X11/fonts. In comparing this installation to one on a current box that was recently installed from the May snapshot, Most everything looks the same, the few differences in package lists are due to apsfilter and friends being installed on the current box. The xorg.0.log shows no EE entries, just the fixed font missing message. What am I missing here, and what is the recovery path? -- Best regards, Derek Tattersall dlt@mebtel.net dlt666@yahoo.com dtatters@gmail.com
