XFree crash after update (fonts)


Hi, I installed DRI from CVS yesterday, it all went fine, updated DRM modules also from CVS, then I added the correspondent lines in XF86Config-4 to support the DRI modules, then reboot and ..... XFree didn't start.

The log file shows the error when it is trying to load the fonts, maybe I should put more fonts paths in the XF86Config-4 file but I really don't know what should I put so let me know that.

Apparently the error is not caused by the DRI module it seems to be loadded fine, but while I was installing it I could notice that some fonts-like files where modified or updated in the process, so...


Using mdk 10
XFree 4.3
kernel 2.6.7 from www.kernel.org

problem solved?

it's done and finally I got dri support on a sis 630 , I almost cried while playing tuxracer for the first time at a reasonable speed, but anyway the problem was the free space, but before trying to delete some files I tried to resize my partition giving it more space and shrinking windows partition, I tried to do that with partition magic, but it said that my partition table was screwed and then it could be solved by resizing the extended partition (in which / and /home reside) I said ok, then a successful message appeared then ok and the same error appeared again and again....

Maybe partition magic can't handle the partition table made by the mandrake install???
weird
