Chaps,

I have installed the freefonts-0.10 package on my 2.2-RELEASE sytsem and am
running up against the following problem...

when I try to add the font path I get: 

xset fp+ /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/freefont
xset:  bad font path element (#35), possible causes are:
    Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions
    Directory missing fonts.dir
    Incorrect font server address or syntax

I have xdm and xfs running but can't seem to get access to these fonts.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Carey Nairn
