Xserver
On RedHat9 the Xserver would not start. The errors are:
Could not init font path element unix/:7100, removing from list!
Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
I found that /usr/X11R6/lib/fonts directory structure does not exist. Can I copy it from somewhere?
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Elena.

Re: Xserver
With all the cd's present and a careful read on the error messages to pick up all the rpms you need.
use the rpm -iv filename.rpm comand. The verbose output has been very helpful to me.

Re: Xserver
Check if your xfs is already installed on your system:
# rpm -qa |grep xfs
Check which port is running on:
# ps ax|grep xfs
Check your XFree86 font path:
# xset -q

Sergejs

Re: Xserver
The font server ran at initial install, and after a reboot it broke for some mysterious reason or may be it is something else. At this point a DISPLAY variable is not set.
rpm -qa|grep xfs
XFree86-xfs-4.3.0-2
ps -ef|grep xfs shows that xfs is running
xset -q
xset: unable to open display

Re: Xserver
The font server is having some problems in getting the fonts to work. Somehow the installation didnt do it properly at the first time. Reinstall those rpms again as said by Sergejs.
HTH,
