Hi,
  Having a dickens of a time getting AbiWord to see its' fonts. They
are installed - etc. The real question is the action of XFree86 as
reported by xset q.
After restarting the x-server 'xset q' reports that the directory of the
abifonts '/usr/share/abisuite/fonts' is in the font path. After trying
to start AbiWord, which invariably reports that Times New Roman does not
exist even though it is in the directory and correctly reported in
fonts.dir this font path is not reported if 'xset q' is run again.

  Is this normal behavior for XFree86-4.0.1-1?

Ideas or places to start looking besides '/etc/X11/XF86config-4' and
'/etc/X11/fs/config'? The font path to the "abifonts", installed with
AbiWord, are present in both files.

TIA

Bob
