FontPath

[MartyFisher1 cs com]

Darryl,

Thanks for help on my screen resolution problem.  Then, you mentioned a 
solution to a possible font problem.  Although my fonts are ok when logged in 
as a user (non-root), your solution suggested a another problem that I've 
given up on (see attachment).  Can I change the XF86Config file FontPath 
section to point directly to '/usr/X11R6/X11/fonts/100dpi'?  When logging in 
gnome as root, there a error finding the fonts.  If I directly place the 
fonts into the config file, might that help?

Thanks again,
Marty
