Artwiz fonts not working correctly

Diminished7th · 04-25-2006, 08:53 PM

This is most irritating as I had the Artwiz fonts working properly not more than a week ago. But, I've since then reformatted my hard drive and can't remember how I got my fonts working.

Yes, I know that similar threads are plentiful here at Linuxquestions, but following them hasn't led to any degree of resolve.

Guides that I've attempted to make use of:

-Fluxbox
-LQ Thread 1
-JustLinux
-LQ Thread 2

I've got the Artwiz fonts working correctly for everything except Fluxbox.
They appear in xfontsel and all of the guide-specified config files have been appended.

Please let me know what configs/directories you need to see in order to help.

*NOTE* I compiled Fluxbox 0.9.15.1 from source

Does anyone have the slightest idea?

How could the Artwiz fonts work for everything except Fluxbox?

That means that they're installed correctly, obviously, but what am I missing? What small detail have I forgotten?

The guides above show everything that I've tried.

Help? Please?

Which is why I keep a ChangeLog of everything I do on the system. A bit of a pain, of course, but worth it in the long run.

Emacs can manage a ChangeLog for you.

emacs ChangeLog

creates a ChangeLog file and puts emacs in ChangeLog mode

Ctrl 4 a

enters new ChangeLog entry.

Ctrl x Ctrl s

saves the file

Ctrl x Ctrl c

exits emacs

Thanks, that'll certainly be helpful in the future. But, right now I'd like to focus on eliminating my font dilemma.

Absolutely no insight? Anyone?

I use fluxbox (0.9.15), installed with the Slackware package out of current. I use artwiz-fonts (en, de) without problems in fluxbox and all other windowmanagers.

Fluxx.
