Just got mozilla-fonts.tar.gz.
unzipped/untarred it,
did make pcf,
did make install,
and did xset fp+ /usr/local/lib/fonts/Mozilla:unscaled.
On the xset, the following error came up:
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
I checked that the /usr/local/lib/fonts/Mozilla existed, and it did.
The permissions on /usr/local/lib/fonts/Mozilla were drwxr-xr-x for me
(non-root).
/usr/local/lib/fonts/Mozilla did not have the fonts.dir file from the
Mozilla-fonts directory so I copied it over and tried the xset again, but
got the same error.
So now I suspect that the problem must be, "Incorrect font server address or
syntax", but I don't know what to do about that. I'm Running RH6.1. Can
anyone help?
