After a little more research, the culprit turns out to be xfstt --sync, which creates the ttname directory which includes the bogus add_style_names. Basically, it it better to use the X server to get your fonts rather than xfstt, since xfstt seems to add these bogus style names that no application pays attention to or even want to deal with. xfstt does seem to have benefits of protecting the X server from bogus font requests by filtering them through the deficient font protocol, but I guess I can live with it for now. At least now I can use all of my fonts without getting bogus errors from applications... /Joe To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-gnome" in the body of the message
