Chris,

I found this comment in an old mail message:

-----------------------------------------------------

However, I managed to solve the problem I was having with xfs in FC9.

Just in case someone else asks you: as you said, it's a matter of

editing /etc/X11/fs/config after installing xorg-x11-xfs via yum.

Although the default config looks like it should work, it seems it is

necessary to change the "catalogue =" line to its equivalent in FC6,

that is:

catalogue = /usr/share/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled,
/usr/share/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled,
/usr/share/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled,
/usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1,
/usr/share/X11/fonts/TTF,
/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1,

-----------------------------------------------------

I might be something to examine.

Greetings,

We are working to get edm running on fedora 10 and were able to get it to compile with little problem but getting it to run has been another story. The trouble is with the fonts...has anyone else reported any problems with edm on f10? We have a working version, 1-11-1d, that uses the 110, version 1 font file format, running on f8 but when I try this font file version or version 3 edm has a font init error. The f8 machine and the f10 machine have the same available fonts but for some reason things don't work on the f10 machine. Your thoughts would be much appreciated!

Thank you and have a great day!

Regards,

Chris
