Hi Gang,
The other day I build the latest AbiWord; it compiles but gives me a can't-find-AbiWord-fonts err. i've modified /etc/XF86Config, and followed the instructions in the problem html file. Evidently not well enough. Any ideas?
Are you running AbiWord across a remote X display? What do you have for XF86Config? What version of FreeBSD is this? What version of X?
Ah! yes, I am. I have WP and AbiWord on my print server. I'm running X11-4.x on FBSD 4.3. I just upgraded to the newest /etc/XF86Config. No joy....
Clues?
Yeah, you can't run AbiWord across a remote X display unless you copy the fonts to the remote server. This is all documented in the pkg-message for AbiWord. It should have been displayed right after you installed it. In case you missed it, it's /usr/ports/editors/AbiWord/pkg-message.
If you've already done this, then I'm not sure why it doesn't work. Admittedly, I don't run AbiWord on remote X displays.
Joe
