Re: Font not found

[Robert J. Chassell]

    I can't reproduce that problem.  When I select 10x20, Emacs
    uses the font
    -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso8859-1
    which is the same one opened by:
    % xfd -fn -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-*-*-*-c-100-iso8859-1

I still cannot see the 10x20 font in Emacs.

    In your environment, which font the above command opens,

  xfd -fn -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-*-*-*-c-100-iso8859-1

That command opens an X windows box with

  -Misc-Fixed-Medium-R-Normal--20-200-75-75-C-100-ISO8859-1

in it.

    what is the result of this command?
    % xlsfonts -fn -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-*-*-*-c-100-iso8859-1


  $  xlsfonts -fn -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-*-*-*-c-100-iso8859-1
  -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-140-100-100-c-100-iso8859-1
  -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-145-100-100-c-100-iso8859-1
  -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-145-100-100-c-100-iso8859-1
  -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-145-100-100-c-100-iso8859-1
  -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-145-100-100-c-100-iso8859-1
  -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-145-100-100-c-100-iso8859-1
  -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-145-100-100-c-100-iso8859-1
  -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso8859-1
  -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso8859-1
  -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso8859-1
  -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso8859-1
  -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso8859-1


In other words, the results were the same as before:

    Although mouse-set-font finds 15, 18, and 24 point fixed fonts in
    lisp/mouse.el in x-fixed-font-alist

       ("9x15" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--15-*-*-*-c-90-iso8859-1" "9x15")
       ("11x18" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--18-*-*-*-c-110-iso8859-1" "11x18")
       ("12x24" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--24-*-*-*-c-120-iso8859-1" "12x24")

    it says `Font not found' for the 20 point font, as has happened
    before, even though x-fixed-font-alist in lisp/mouse.el says

       ("10x20" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-*-*-*-c-100-iso8859-1" "10x20")

However, in today's GNU Emacs CVS snapshot, Thu, 2008 May 15 11:10 UTC
GNU Emacs 23.0.60.4 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.9)
built with        make
in Debian (rebooted with yesterday's testing distribution)
with kernel 2.6.22

with the same configuration as before
  ./configure --disable-font-backend --with-x --with-type1 --with-x-toolkit=gtk

and started with

    emacs -Q -D --eval '(setq debug-on-error t)'

The failure reported for the 10x20 font was

    Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Font not found")
      ad-Orig-signal(error ("Font not found"))
      signal(error ("Font not found"))
      ad-Orig-error("Font not found")
      apply(ad-Orig-error "Font not found")
      error("Font not found")
      mouse-set-font("-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-*-*-*-c-100-iso8859-1" 
"10x20")
      call-interactively(mouse-set-font nil nil)
