I'm trying to add the truetype fonts from my windows setup to X.

I have compiled/installed xtt-SVGA out of ports.
I have symbolically linked all my .ttf .TTF fonts from the fat32 mount into
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/ttf.

Ran mkttfdir in that directory.

Then tried xset -display :0 fp+ /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/ttf and I get this:

xset:  bad font path element (#38), possible causes are:
    Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions
    Directory missing fonts.dir
    Incorrect font server address or syntax

I've tried it with only 1 font numbered and listed in fonts.dir and it's
the same.

What's going on?  I've hit handbook/faq/mailing list archives, but no clues.

tia,
