/etc/X11/fs/config ?


Hi, I'm trying to install true type fonts on debian.

I follow the instructions from:

http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-...nts-fonts.html

at some point I'm supposed to:
Quote:
Open XFS /etc/X11/fs/config file
# vi /etc/X11/fs/config
However, the how-to was written when debian still had /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. I assume that's the reason why I can't find /etc/X11/fs and don't know what the xorg equivalent is.

thanks
