Summary:                    font-alias shenanigans
Description: 
XOrg7 doesn't start - could not open default font 'fixed'

It does seem to work if I have the XOrg-fonts-base module installed, from
XOrg (6.9.0); however I'm continually reminded that this module conflicts
with all of XOrg7.

you have font-misc-misc installed?
if not... you didn't install the XOrg7 profile (or you adjusted yourself)
if you do i want feedback :)

and did you remove your old xorg.conf file? you need to create a new
vanilla one... 
and before you test this... remove that Xorg-font thingy...

cheers,S.

yeah i have font-misc-misc X11R7.0-1.0.0 installed

so remove /etc/X11/xorg.conf and have it create a new one? 

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
 El_Angelo - 05-22-07 11:34  
---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
that is correct
remove XOrg-fonts-base, lin font-misc-misc, remove /etc/X11/xorg.conf (or
back it up) and create a new one...

and plz next time choose a sensible bug report title :)
gr,S.

lin font-misc-misc didn't quite work:

/usr/bin/ucs2any: Can't read mapping file
'/usr/share/fonts/util/map-ISO8859-1': No such file or directory! 

----------------------------------------------------------------------

of course.... you had that conflicting package installed...
after lrm Xorg-fonts-base you should run lunar fix :)
