Hi mkfontdir worked. thanx a lot. however, i have a new problem. on running bochs, it panics and gives a message saying that SIGILL is not implemented. the signal manpage says that SIGILL cannot be trapped using signal. is there any workarond for this? bochs seems to work fine when, i change the config to ignore fatal errors. however, this could generate unpredictable errors. gautham ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bob Giesen" <BobGiesen@earthlink.net> To: "Gautham Ganapathy" <gauthamg123list@yahoo.com>; "FreeBSD questions" <freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org> Sent: Friday, February 08, 2002 10:13 AM Subject: Re2: bochs vga font not detected by X > On Thursday 07 February 2002 10:06 pm, Gautham Ganapathy wrote: > > Hi. > > > > I have a font file vga.pcf (came along with bochs) that is in the > > /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc directory.
