Hi there. Appologies for re-hashing this. Just upgraded my system for the first time in a couple of months with slink. Everything mostly went right, but I have had some problems with X. When starting it, my windowmanager (windowmaker) complains with a message like:
Can't load font -*-helvetica-bold-r-normal-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*. Trying fixed. >From the following thread (http://www.debian.org/Lists-Archives/debian-user-9811/threads.html#01674) it seems that the fault is of the new break up in the xfont/xbase packages. The resolution from the mailing list archives seems to be nuke all of X and re-install. I'd rather not do that though :) (though it is possible of course). I've tried purging all of the xfonts packages I have, and re-installing them but to no avail. If anyone can help me 'easily' fix this, I'd appreciate it a lot. Thanks a lot.
