I'm getting the error:
Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
xorg-fonts-miscbitmaps-7.2
is installed.
I have run:
portupgrade -f fonts*
on the off chance that things were out of order somehow.
Which fonts are considered 'fixed' from the xserver's point of view? I
have never noticed anything in xorg.conf that refers to 'fixed'.
There are 411 files in my /usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/misc directory.
In comparing the contents of misc with an older xorg install I noticed
that fonts.alias and fonts.cache-1 are both missing from all fonts
directories. Shouldn't fc-cache create those files? I have run fc-cache
multiple times (so have the various install scripts). I have reinstalled
fontconfig.
What is the xserver actually looking for when it wants 'fixed?'
Thanks for your time.
