similar to: scalable fonts problem on Linux

I'm getting Error in strwidth(...) : X11 font at size 15 could not be loaded kinds of errors when I try to change cex to something *other* than 1 (works OK otherwise). I can't get through to RSiteSearch() right now, but as I recall my search of it only revealed people who had problems because they had failed to install fonts: my Knoppix/tracking Debian unstable distribution claims

HI All, I got this Error message, when I tried to plot ?X11 font -adobe-helvetica-%s-%s-*-*-%d-*-*-*-*-*-*-*, face 5 at size 15 could not be loaded sessionInfo() R version 3.0.0 (2013-04-03) Platform: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu (64-bit) locale: ?[1] LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8??????

I needed to upgrade to R 2.4.1 from debian stable maintained at http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/debian/. and tried to upgrade with apt-get install r-base. It installed R 2.4.1 successfully, but ran into errors while also upgrading r-recommended packages. I was able to fix that using apt-get install -f euclid:~# aptitude install r-base Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency

Everytime I start a program with wine-20010629 on Red Hat Linux, font metrics get updated. I am getting fonts through the Xserver (no xfont server) (currently M$, ghostscript, Type1, misc and 75dpi fonts) Is this behaviour normal? Everytime this happens, I get lots of output like fixme:font:LFD_InitFontInfo DBCS fonts like '-urw-century schoolbook

there seem to be very few iso8859-1 (latin-1) fonts. in particular the lucidatypewriter fonts aren't there for 8859-1. but it does have 8859-2. just playing with xfontsel i see about 800 8859-1 fonts and 2000 8859-2. did something get left out? i did an everything install. and further poking with yum doesn't show any other font packages that could be installed. # yum list all

Dear list, I would like to make a comment how to solve the X11 font problem under SuSE Linux (9.0) when you get the message: "X11 font at size 16 could not be loaded". After having modified /etc/X11/XF86config as root (see below) you have to run 'SuSEconfig' as root as well else nothing might be changed in the X-Server. After that no further messages should appear. HTH,

What is the difference between xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi and xorg-x11-fonts-100dpi? Under what circumstances would one want to use the 75dpi version versus the 100dpi version? If you have both installed, does the xorg server just pick the one that it considers best based on some criteria? Should you have both installed? Is anything gained by having both installed? As you can see I don't know

Hi all, As promised, here's a first batch of font releases, hopefully in time for the upcoming katamari. For now, I've only tackled "adobe-*" fonts, the rest will come later once I get round to it. The major changes for these fives releases are - CVS tags purges by Jesse Adkins - font-util macro bump to 1.2 by Ga?tan Nadon Follows a list of all urls, MD5 and SHA1 checksums:

You would think installing via yum would handle dependencies, but perhaps fonts are not managed like dependencies..... Anyway, I installed tightvnc to test out its IPv6 support. Installed ok (after I erased regular vnc). But when I tried to start it, I got 5 warnings about: Font directory '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc' not found - ignoring (then the same message for Speedo, Type1,

Hi, I am moving from Windows XP to Ubuntu 6.10 and installed R 2.4.0. When I run eg plot.lm (things work fine with plot.default - eg plot(rnorm(30),rnorm(30))) plot(lmobject) I can get the first plot and then this message: Hit <Return> to see next plot: Error in text.default(x, y, labels.id[ind],cex=cex, xpd=TRUE, : could not find any X11 fonts Check that the Font Path is correct

I have a certain software on CentOS 6.4 that gave the following error: X Error of failed request: BadName (named color or font does not exist) Major opcode of failed request: 45 (X_OpenFont) Serial number of failed request: 15 Current serial number in output stream: 30 Running strace shows that the error happens just about here: writev(4,

I previously posted about this problem on the r-help list, but was told that I should switch over to the r-sig-fedora list. So here goes: When trying to do a plot in a certain context I got an error: Error in text.default(2, 6, main, cex = cex) : X11 font -adobe-helvetica-%s-%s-*-*-%d-*-*-*-*-*-*-*, face 1 at size 16 could not be loaded This is reproducible (in my current environment)

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi again, And here are the final font releases. Like in my previous batch, all changes are by Ga?tan and Jesse.

Greetings - Users of the box I'm putting together will need to be able to run R remotely, using a virtual desktop. One approach (that I'm trying) is to use VNC. So far, I can get the remote gnome desktop up on the server (running Fedora Core 5), and can start R from a terminal. However, for a lot of the R scripts I've tried, I get 'font errors' - the general error message

Hi, I am running word 97 under codeweavers wine on a suse 6.4 system. Word loads fine and I can use almost all of its functionallity. The problem is that when I type, I can't type using the Arial font. Characters typed in Arial only show up in the "online layout" view. I am running xfstt and have installed all the truetype fonts that come with windows. Is this problem

I am trying to make wine run with a couple of windows applications and there is no way I can get normal fonts. All I get is little squares instead. I have set up a directory /home/username/.wine/fake_windows/Fonts that has quite a few .ttf files that I got from my Windows98 partition. I have also set up chkfontpath to the right path (please see attached files). Then what can be wrong? I
