I managed to figure out how to add True Type fonts to XFree86 (Red Hat) A - Install freetype. http://rpmfind.net B - backups: /etc/X11/fs/config, /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 C- 1- create directory such as /usr/share/fonts/TrueType/ 2- copy all true type fonts to said directory. 3- # touch fonts.dir; # touch fonts.scale 4- in directory: # ttmkfdir > fonts.scale; # ttmkfdir fonsta.dir 5- In directory: # mkfontdir D- edit /etc/X11/fs/config : look for [ catalogue = ] and on a new line below the other folders add the directory you created to hold your fonts. E- edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 : look for [ Section "Module" ] and on a new line add [ Load "freetype" ] F- Restart the X server. G- Once this is done once, just go through C-4 and C-5 again when you add more fonts. Samir M.
