How do I tell the XO X server to use the fonts that are on the device.<br><br>Why? I'd like to use emacs on the XO using fonts that are slightly<br>bigger than unreadable/tiny. (If folks have other suggestions on how
<br>to do that, then I'd love to hear them).<br><br>The XO X server starts out using just the "built-in" fonts. But there<br>are other fonts installed, and there is an xfs running. So how do I<br>tell the X server to either contact xfs, or otherwise use the fonts
<br>that are already install.<br><br>Below is the output from "xlsfonts", an "ls" of the fonts area, and<br>two "ps" commands that show that xfs is running and that X is sharted<br>with just "built-in" fonts.
<br><br>I haven't had to do this sort of X server hacking in years, so I'm a<br>lot rusty at this.<br><br>Regards, --Mike<br><br><br>[olpc@xo-10-AF-EB ~]$ xlsfonts<br>-misc-fixed-medium-r-semiconden<div id="mb_0">
