Description Elijah "Armageddon" El Lazkani (amd64 AT) 2012-05-30 16:33:48 UTC

Is there a way I can run cxterm ?

I get this error:
Warning: Cannot convert string "8x16" to type FontStruct

even if .Xdefault is empty. Is there a locale I need to be adding etc...

This package needs to be stabilized on ~amd64

Duplicate of bug 357331 perhaps? Removing USE="nls" is a bad idea for now.

font-misc-misc installed? X.org restarted after installing it?

@treecleaner:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=189817

Removal request for the package from Debian (2003)

And if you look at the package ChangeLog in Gentoo, you can find me fixing a compilation bug it had, but I clearly remember it never ran after fixing the building bug on my system either

So unless someone is figuring out the issue, I guess it's time for lastrite

It seems the ebuild dosen't install bundled fonts.
