You know, I'm /quite/ embarrassed about this one. Last year I wrote a /very/ long, and informative "how-to" for adding fonts to X. I gave a fair amount of background on the whole process too - including "debugging" the results of each step. You'd think I'd have figured this out on my own. :P Problem was - I /assumed/ that installing xorg-server, xorg-apps, and xorg-libraries would have /included/ all the prerequisites - D'oh! Anyway, looks like I have something else to add to that "how-to". :) Thanks again for taking the time to help me out on this one. --Chris > >> >> --Chris >> >> >> -- >> panic: kernel trap (ignored) >> >> >> >> > > > -- > Regards, > Kimi > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > -- panic: kernel trap (ignored)
