All that comes up is normal text instead of the proper Xconq font. This hasn't been a problem until now, because most people around here used X10, under which Xconq works fine, but soon we'll be upgrading from Sun 3/50's to Sun SLC's, which don't run X10. This is what I get when I try to run Xconq under X11R4. Anyone have any idea what is going wrong or how to fix it? dory 5:26pm> x11conq Welcome to XCONQ version 5.1 (7/20/88) XCONQ NEWS Sorry about the X11 version not working, but no one seems to know what is causing the problem. Please wait six days while I create the world... The time is WW II ca 1945. Can't open fonts "xconq" or "/usr/games/lib/xconq/xconq.snf" on "unix:0.0" Substituting another font... Can't open fonts "standard" or "/usr/games/lib/xconq/standard.snf" on "unix:0.0" Substituting another font... The outcome remains undecided, but you're probably the loser! dory 5:28pm> ls -l /usr/games/lib/xconq/xconq.snf -rw-r--r-- 1 games 13485 Jan 3 1989 /usr/games/lib/xconq/xconq.snf dory 5:28pm> ls -l /usr/games/lib/xconq/standard.snf -rw-r--r-- 1 games 10360 Jan 3 1989 /usr/games/lib/xconq/standard.snf dory 5:29pm> -- | Mark Geary, Department of Computer and Information Science | | The Ohio State University, 2036 Neil Ave., Columbus OH USA 43210-1277 | | ...!{pyramid,killer}!cis.ohio-state.edu!geary (614) 292 - 0915 | | geary@cis.ohio-state.edu or geary@tut.cis.ohio-state.edu |
