For some reason I Cant get ANSI fonts to work in Xterms. 

I download 3 smoothansi.pcf nexus.pcf and bright.pcf 

All are placed in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc 
then I did the following 

mkfontdir  ; xset fp rehash 
xterm -fg white -bg black -fn <new_font>

For some reason my font doesn't seem to be getting loading?? Is there
Something I'm doing wrong.
