One thing that is bugging me ever since the x.org upgrade.
When running fix-font.sh I get a warning about the 75 and 100dpi
fonts eg.
Warning: /usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi does not exist or is not a directory
Yet on my machine /usr/lib/X11/fonts is symbolically linked to
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts which contains the 75 and 100dpi font
directories. So the directories do exist.
I seem to remember tinkering with the fonts links during one of
the x.org upgrades which went wrong so it may be this which
is causing the warning.
I know it's only a warning and it doesn't seem to result in any ill
effects but I would like to get rid of it if possible.
Anyone know how? |

Should still work:
# mv /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts.original
# ln -s /usr/share/fonts/X11 /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts

you have to set some symlinks due to xorg 7 using different paths then 6.9 did.
Code:
# ln -s /usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi/ /usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi
# ln -s /usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/ /usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi
# ln -s /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/ /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc
will do the job.

Thanks devil28.
That did the trick for the 100dpi directory warning but I still get
a warning for the 75dpi directory.
I looked into /etc/X11/fonts and discovered a 100dpi directory
but no 75dpi.
Also there is a /etc/X11/fonts/X11R7 (x.org?) directory containing
both the 75 and 100dpi directories. Am I correct in thinking that
some of my linkages are pointing to the wrong places? |

Thanks also to hubi.(Somehow I missed your post.)
I'll investigate my linkages tonight when I have more time.
Thanks again every one. |
