1. Check if the X font server is running.
1、檢查X字體服務是否正在運行。

一些人像我一樣趨向于懷疑這是由X字體服務的bugs引起的，

但它證明這X字體服務是良好的。我們可以運行
the xfs under /etc/init.d to see if the font server is running.
這xfs格本文件夾在/etc/init.d去看是否字體服務正在運行。
[root@localhost /root]# /etc/init.d/xfs status
xfs (pid 1385) is running...
In some cases, the only reason for the failure is that the font server is
在一些案例，唯一失敗的原因是字體服務停止

所以，你需要重新啟動字體服務象這樣：

2. Check if the font 'fixed' is accessible.
檢查是否字體“fixed”可以理解的。
Now it is time to ensure that the font 'fixed' is accessible. First, we
現在是時侯確保字體“fixed”是受影響的。首先

我們可以運行命令fslsfonts去看是否字體存在在所尋找的路徑：

This is the normal output when 'fixed' is available. Here, we can see that
當“fixed”是可用的，這是通常輸出的情況，我們可以看到
'fixed' is actually an alias for the font
“fixed”實際上是字體的別名。

這個文件顯示字體文件的別名與原名。因此清楚知道從前字體的“fixed”是需要的，

3. Rebuild font list.

Font list can be rebuilt using the file xfs under /etc/init.d.
運用格本文件xfs在/etc/init.d下，字體列表可以被重建
Following is an excerpt of the :
以下是格本文件的摘錄：
...
buildfontlist() {
pushd . &> /dev/null
for d in $(/usr/sbin/chkfontpath --list | cut -f 2 -d ':') ;do
if [ -d "$d" ]; then
cd $d
# Check if we need to rerun mkfontdir
NEEDED=no
if ! [ -e fonts.dir ]; then
NEEDED=yes
elif [ "$(find . -type f -cnewer fonts.dir 2>/dev/null)" != "" ];then

For readers not familiar with shell programming, this excerpt means that
因為讀者不熟悉運行命令程序，這格本文件的意思是每次xfs格本在運行，
each time xfs is run, it will check whether there is a fonts.dir
它將會檢查是否有fonts.dir在列表中的每一個字本路徑中。

4. Fonts really missing?
字體確實不見了？
