Installing True Type Windows Fonts in Linux

Posted: 25 Jul 2004 10:16 AM PDT

Please create a dir and copy all the windows fonts into that location.
e.g: /usr/local/fonts ....

1. cd /usr/local/fonts/
2. /usr/bin/ttfttmkfdir > fonts.scale
3. /usr/X11R6/bin/mkfontdir

RH users can use chkfontpath for this new font path to be added in
conf file.

chkfontpath -a /usr/local/fonts/ttf

and if you don't have chkfontpath, please edit /etc/x11/xfs/config and
add the font dir in "catalog" directive.

problem using minicom

Using kppp exactly as Redhat doc-archive describes it, solved my problem.
I must say I think the Documentation CD from RH 6.2 got me all confused, using
a lot of time on things that didn't work. Somehow I vaguely remember having a
similar problem 3 years ago, when I first installed it...

This is generally incorrect. The new kernel becomes default, but the old
kernel is left in place for recovery purposes and because it's really
dangerous to remove an active kernel in a live system, you can really blow
the system off the map and break many, many functions.

Replacing kernels is one of the few things in Linux that really takes
rebooting to use the new software.

In comp.os.linux.setup Neil Daniell <net.nz> suggested: 

Simply chose LCD@1280x1024 or LCD@1024x768, whatever your TFT is
capable of, the manual should tell. Test the mode and you should
be fine, if working.
