7.4.2. Core X Font System
For compatibility, Red Hat Enterprise Linux provides the core X font subsystem, which uses the X Font Server (
xfs) to provide fonts to X client applications.
The X server looks for a font server specified in the
FontPath directive within the Files section of the /etc/X11/xorg.conf configuration file. Refer to Section 7.3.1.4, “Files” for more information about the FontPath entry.
The X server connects to the
xfs server on a specified port to acquire font information. For this reason, the xfs service must be running for X to start. For more about configuring services for a particular runlevel, refer to the chapter titled Controlling Access to Services in the System Administrators Guide.
7.4.2.1. xfs Configuration
The
/etc/rc.d/init.d/xfs script starts the xfs server. Several options can be configured within its configuration file, /etc/X11/fs/config.
The following lists common options:
alternate-servers— Specifies a list of alternate font servers to be used if this font server is not available. A comma must seperate each font server in a list.catalogue— Specifies an ordered list of font paths to use. A comma must seperate each font path in a list.Use the string:unscaledimmediately after the font path to make the unscaled fonts in that path load first. Then specify the entire path again, so that other scaled fonts are also loaded.client-limit— Specifies the maximum number of clients the font server services. The default is10.clone-self— Allows the font server to clone a new version of itself when theclient-limitis hit. By default, this option ison.default-point-size— Specifies the default point size for any font that does not specify this value. The value for this option is set in decipoints. The default of120corresponds to a 12 point font.default-resolutions— Specifies a list of resolutions supported by the X server. Each resolution in the list must be separated by a comma.deferglyphs— Specifies whether to defer loading glyphs (the graphic used to visually represent a font). To disable this feature usenone, to enable this feature for all fonts useall, or to turn this this feature on only for 16-bit fonts use16.error-file— Specifies the path and file name of a location wherexfserrors are logged.no-listen— Preventsxfsfrom listening to particular protocols. By default, this option is set totcpto preventxfsfrom listening on TCP ports for security reasons.Note
If usingxfsto serve fonts over the network, remove this line.port— Specifies the TCP port thatxfslistens on ifno-listendoes not exist or is commented out.use-syslog— Specifies whether to use the system error log.
