Should mozilla-fonts-1.0 from http://fox.mit.edu/skunk/xwin/#mozilla_fonts
work for an individual user on Solaris? I've compiled and installed them
with the DESTDIR variable set to
/home/users/mcillece/usr/local/lib/fonts/Mozilla, but when I do the xset (as
non-root - since I don't have root on this machine)
xset fp+ /home/users/mcillece/usr/local/lib/fonts/Mozilla:unscaled
with or without the ":unscaled" part, I get the following message:
xset: bad font path element (#42), possible causes are:
Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions
Directory missing fonts.dir
Incorrect font server address or syntax
What is font path element (#42)? None of the files have "42" embedded in
their names, or "41", or "40" for that matter.
The directory permissions are set to rwxrwxr-x all the way down starting at
and including /home/users/mcillece/usr
The /home/users/mcillece/usr/local/lib/fonts/Mozilla directory does exist
and the permissions are set to rwxrwxr-x all the way down starting at and
including /home/users/mcillece/usr.
The fonts.dir file does exist in the Mozilla subdirectory and does contain
the expected font info.
I'm not sure if I'm using an "Incorrect font server address or syntax" How
would I check?
TIA
Matt
