The ebuild for x3270 (IBM 3270 terminal emulator) overwrites /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/fonts.dir. This causes the infamous "could not locate default font fixed" error next time X is started.
please check that the -r1 ebuild does not clobber your fonts.
in fact, please check the 3.2.19 version and test that (it's masked currently)
Will, well?

I've been waiting all week for my cable modem to be installed, so I couldn't emerge anything. Anyway, the new ebuild does fix the problem. Thanks for the quick response! -- Remember, "RAM disk" is not an installation procedure! Will Reinhart blue-dragon@tamu.edu
