Cyrillic fonts broken
I previously had the ability to type cyrillic charecters however after the following upgrades:

(The placeholder boxes appear). Code:
xlsfonts | grep cyrillic Code:
... My machine runs Slackware:Current Fluxbox Window Manager Thank you for your time and assistance |
where are you trying to use these fonts?
have you tried using the aliases? do they show up in xfontsel? |
Just so it's known, I had forgotten that I needed to pull a fonts package off of linuxpackages.net. Once I reinstalled those fonts (default X cyrillic fonts have never worked for me) everything was groovy. Anyone else having similar trouble I would direct you to the afore mentioned package.
