I am trying to get a VNC server running on my system, but the program
complains that my font path is screwed up or possible that I miss some
important font, its hard to tell from the error message. I have no
problem running X on my system and my fontpath seems okey from there. I
have one idea to what the problem could be. I have been forced to
install Xfree 3.x.x in order to use my ooold gfx card, possible it could
be Xfree 3.xx who is the problem? Any suggestions to what I could be
doing wrong would be appriciated.
Regards
/Jonas
the fontpath from my XF86Config which looks something like this.
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/local/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/"
my vncserver fontpath is set to
$fontPath =
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/";
This is the error message I get from Xvnc
Couldn't start Xvnc; trying default font path.
Please set correct fontPath in the vncserver script.
Couldn't start Xvnc process.
