Do you know what is the default font in X? And how to change that font. I mixed it up at the end of the installation process, and now, I cannot get it back to the default font.
In my distro (FC2) is is "latarcyrheb-sun16". That came up under "setting default X font" during boot.
To give better responces to your questions, you should put your distro and your (general) location in your cp (see top of page > "user cp") ... this is strongly encouraged.
(Yes I know you posted to "slackware" this time - bit it really helps, take it from soneone who's been around a while )

i don't recall setting a default font for X during the installation of slackware.
i do remember setting the vga console default font, which would be 'setfont' to change it...
