Hi eculp, Yes -- I'm gettting the same results here on 7.0-CURRENT. I've compiled with gcc 3.4.6 and trying to start /usr/local/bin/X returns a segmentation fault and the message you've described below. I dont know if that could help but maybe you could try recompiling x11-fonts/xorg-fonts and see what it does ? Thanks in advance for letting me know once you've found a proper solution.. :) Kind regards, Etienne --- eculp@encontacto.net wrote: > I get: > Fatal server error: > could not open default font 'fixed' > > I have looked at: > XFree86-4-fontDefaultBitmaps is not used with > xorg > x11-fonts/font-alias is installed > xorg-fonts-miscbitmaps is installed thinking that > it might sub the Default > I have checked font.conf for correct path. > Found a thread on Google but didn't find the > solution. > xorgcfg gives the same error > /etc/X11/xorg.conf Font Path is set to > /usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/ > > I upgraded with portupgrade -a -P so I guess I could > go back and > recompile all but first I would like to know if > anyone else has seen > this after the update and how they fixed it. > Something dumb I'm doing > I'm sure :( > > Thanks, > > ed > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "freebsd-ports-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > ---- Etienne Robillard 7680 de jouvence, La Plaine J7M-2K9, Québec Telephone: 450-478-5026 Yahoo Messenger ID: granted14 Skype ID: incidah Ask a question on any topic and get answers from real people.
