Re: How to add font

[Fajar Priyanto <fajarpri@cbn.net.id>]

The error I encounter is that X said I cannot run xdosemu from remote X (in 
this case LTSP), and that I must install dosemu vga font.

The font is already in the dosemu's Xfonts dir, so apparently the Xserver 
cannot see it?

Then, I try to change dosemu $_X_font option to other font that is already 
listed in GDM font, and it works. So, it's a matter of how to add those 
dosemu fonts into GDM I think.
