" That's odd... the shmat messages have to do with shared memory (which

Yup, I thought it was unrelated but it did not hurt to add it.

It's rather strange, since I am using CDE but commands like
makepsres are under /usr/openwin .
I looked under /usr/local/AbiSuite/fonts and I found fonts.dir
(first lines:
64
a010013l.pfa -AbiSource-Arial-regular-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso8859-1
- they seem correct) and PSres.upr . But there is still something
odd: if I run mkfontdir the file fonts.dir is deleted, since it
recognises just .pcf, .snf and .bdf files.
I am quite confident that it is a trivial problem - maybe there is some
Solaris user here who can help me.
ciao, .mau.
UPDATE: I tried to use OpenWindows instead of CDE, and fonts appeared
correctly. Then I restarted CDE... and fonts appeared there too!!
Trouble is, I am sure that I restarted CDE after running makepsres,
without result :-(
