Re: [PLUG] DOSEMU, X, and font madness

It complains that it likes it's own font, vga.pcf, and cannot find it.

Okay.

So I follow the instructions in the documentation and copy vga.pcf to
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc.  Then I type: mkfontdir in that same
directory.  I see that the fonts.dir now has the vga font in it.

I've restarted the X server, and then I try to use it (just to test it out) like this:
xterm -fn vga
which fails.



Are you using a font server? If so, did you restart that?
