I upgraded Breezy yesterday and now X won't start. The error message I
get is:
Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed';
the X server's font paths might be misconfigured, remote font server(s)
may be unreachable, and/or local fonts may not be installed or are not
configured correctly.
I noticed that x-window-system-core did not upgrade, so I ran 'apt-get
install' on it and the new version 6.8.2-15 was installed (this matches
the version of most other X packages, although some are at a different
revision).
What package contains the "fixed" font? The following font packages are
installed (plus a few others):
ii xfonts-100dpi 6.8.2-11
100 dpi fonts for X
ii xfonts-75dpi 6.8.2-11
75 dpi fonts for X
ii xfonts-base 6.8.2-11
standard fonts for X
ii xfonts-scalable 6.8.2-11
scalable fonts for X
