After updating my X fonts (via portsnap/portmaster) yesterday, I
discover that aterm is started with an uncomfortably small font size.
I've using ~/.Xresources to specifiy the font:
aterm*font: 10x20
but this does not seem to work now. Trying from the command line:
% aterm -fn 10x20
aterm: can't load font "10x20"
% aterm -fn 9x15
aterm: can't load font "9x15"
Checking UPDATING, I see the following note that may possibly be
relevant:
20150321:
AFFECTS: Users of x11-servers/xorg-server and other X servers
AUTHOR: bapt at FreeBSD.org
All fonts ports have been modified to respect XDG and install in
share/fonts
The Xorg servers now are looking there by default, and have been
modified to also look into etc/X11/fontpath.d (see Xserver(1) for more
details) adding a symlink in that directory pointing to a font directory
will automatically add the later into Xorg FontPath
Is this telling me I have to do something, and if so, what? Am I
supposed to be adding a symlink where pointing to what? And does this
have anything to do with my problem anyway?
