Hello Everyone;
OK - this font thing is getting more bizzare each time I work on it:
I just read a post, telling a user how to install fonts. Well, I've done everything that he told him to do.
Now - here's the interesting part: He says: "Now open Open Office Writer or Gimp, and your fonts should be available!"
So I fire-off Gimp, open the text font widget - and it lists the Teletype font! I select it, and it works!
Then I try Open Office (Libreoffice), open the font widget - and it lists (and loads) the Teletype font too!
Maybe something has changed with <xterm> since RedHat 3 ENT and Fedora 16. Here's a list of the entries and how I'm trying to load them:
root% cd /usr/share/X11/fonts/TTF
root% ls -la
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 165 Mar 27 11:40 fonts.dir
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 165 Mar 27 11:40 fonts.scale
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 65700 Mar 27 11:00 teletype_1945.ttf
root% cat fonts.dir

teletype_1945.ttf -misc-teletype 1945_1985-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-ascii-0
teletype_1945.ttf -misc-teletype 1945_1985-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-iso10646-1
root% xterm -fn teletype_1945.ttf
xterm: cannot load font 'teletype_1945.ttf'
xterm: cannot load font 'teletype_1945.ttf'
root% xterm -fn " -misc-teletype 1945_1985-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-iso10646-1"
xterm: cannot load font '-misc-teletype 1945_1985-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-iso10646-1'
xterm: cannot load font ' -misc-teletype 1945_1985-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-iso10646-1'
Any ideas?
