Please attach your XF86Config-4 config file. Also, please attach the output of: "rpm -qa | sort" Is xfs running? Also, is this a clean install of skipjack, or is it an upgrade from a previous release of Red Hat Linux. If it was an upgrade, is it an upgrade from a clean install, or from a system which may have contained previous rawhide contents? I've also seen this. To replicate - as root dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/annoymikeharrisalot when it says disk full reboot the machine xfs fails to start up (no disk space in /tmp) and X then fails I upgraded XFree86 from 4.2.0-6.48 to -6.51 and got the same problem: $ startx ...snip... Fatal server error: could not open default font 'fixed' I restarted xfs, but it did not help. Any clue? *** Bug 62392 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 62430 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Bug is also related to bug #61940 This bug was caused when I changed the globs for the files in the base-fonts package in order to flag individual files properly. When I changed from the glob fonts.* to individual filenames, fonts.alias didn't click into my head, so it got missed. Simple goofup on my part. Problem should now be fixed in 4.2.0-6.52 in rawhide. alan - that /tmp issue is separate this time. ;o) It's still open in another bugziller somewhere.. on the todo list though. Once someone confirms this fixed, please change resolution to RAWHIDE. *** Bug 62472 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 62476 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Eagerly awaiting the fix ... when's the next push due? Quick fix is of course to downgrade base-fonts to -6.48 (which requires XFree86 at -6.48 too, I just did both but you could use --nodeps). confirmed fix in 4.2.0-6.52 in rawhide. I can't see a -6.52 anywhere ... where are you getting it? Ah, please ignore ... just seen it on Mike's FTP area. Wasn't there last time I checked. Whoopsie.. billc got dropped in a bugzilla mid-air-collision. |
