Hi.

Just upgraded a FreeBSD 6.2 system to xorg 7.2 Upgrade had a few
hiccups, but all now done and appears to be running (thanks!).

However, just fired up emacs and get a bunch of boxes with no fonts and
the message

Warning: Cannot convert string
"-*-times-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1" to type FontStruct

All other apps appear to run fine...

No idea how to diagnose the problem, so any help would be most
appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

-- Jeff
