A couple of the guys in 'questions' have tried to help but we can't seem to get anywhere. The system is 'current' as of 2-1-97. The kernel: SMP I am using the XAccel server yet XFree86 behaves the same. Some programs (ie: xperfmon++, xsysinfo, xftp,) start with the error "Warning: Unable to load any useable fontset". Most of them then continue to run normally. Scitext however, is crashing with an error "Desired Font not ins Cache - loading !!! ERROR: Font could not be loaded by X-Server ! " Xset -q shows font paths correctly but displays... Xlib: extension "XFree86-Misc" missing on display ":0.0". I've re-run 'mkfontdir' in all font directories and done xset fp rehash a few times. Any Ideas?? Thanks -- Randall D.
