Hello all, I am trying to get my TrueType Fonts to work on DRI, however, I am not really su cceeding. The weird thing is, all my FontPath lines are commented out, however I am seeing fonts...where are these fonts listed? When I comment these lines in, iow removing the #, when i reboot, the server won t come up. I install my ttf fonts the following way: I copy all my *.ttf files to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype I go to that directory, and type: ttmkfdir (or ttmkfontdir) -o fonts.dir I add the correct FontPath to /etc/X11/XF86Config xset fp rehash Now, with xfontsel, I dont see them. When I reboot, the server does come up, how ever I dont have the fonts.. The second problem I have, is that when the X server is started, I cannot get in to console anymore. When I hit CTL-ALT-F1/F6, all i get is a black screen. This happens all the time... I have a voodoo5, linux kernel 2.4.0-test4.I am using DRI from yesterday (28th). Thanks in advance for your help, you are doing a wonderful job! Freud |

They're presumably built-in defaults - check the log for the list of paths the server uses.

I think that isn't because of Xfree 4.x/DRI cvs source. I think it's kernels fault. This happnes since test3 came out. I'm using test5 and it is still the same (black screen).
