I've just started fooling with openbox, (and building an rpm package for it) but it appears that openbox 2.1.3 doesn't handle the configuration for Xft2 properly. Version 2.2.1 seems to work. Here is part of the configure output from each: 2.1.3: Building with '-g -O2 -I/usr/X11R6/include -Wall -W' for C++ compiler flags. Building with ' -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lXext' for linker flags. 2.2.1: Building with ' -I/usr/include/Xft2 -I/usr/include/freetype2 - -I/usr/X11R6/include -g -O2 -I/usr/X11R6/include -Wall -W' for C++ compiler flags. Building with ' -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lXext -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXft2 - -lfreetype -lXrender -lfontconfig ' for linker flags. - -- - -Michael pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/gpgkey.txt Red Hat Linux 7.{2,3}|8.0 in 8M of RAM: http://www.rule-project.org/ - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE96DSVn/07WoAb/SsRAqoyAJ9XwOqhYAHCmaAzJY9BPsn0SwpEyQCghE+d 0bL2L0slMP46x5BaQEklLqY= =8TuF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
