This happened to me to. I downloaded the xfonts-base deb and did dpkg -i on it (same version I already had installed). The problem was that the file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/fonts.alias was missing, but to be safe I reinstalled the whole package. I never figured out what caused this. BTW, is there a way to get apt to download and reinstall the current version of a package? Dan
