Speaking of Mandrake, I think I found a broken tool....

[Brian H. Chabot]

I think I just found a broken Mandrake tool:  drakfont

If you use Mandrake, you might want to be careful in using it to install 
TrueType fonts.  I just tried to install a  bunch from my collections 
and... xfs (ergo, X) refused to start after that.

I'm currently Not Pleased.

For anyone interested, the logs are posted at

Grr.

A little manual editing of the font cache and removing entries with 
chkfontpath and it's working again.  I also rm -Rf'd the directories 
drakfont created.  I'm sure there was an easier way (permissions, 
perhaps) but I was in no mood for it after watching my desktop lose X 
functionality.

Just thought I'd warn you.

(drakfont is part of drakxtools.  I've got drakxtools-9.2-19.6.92mdk 
installed.)
