I'm trying to get xterm working on a cloud server that I've just created. I've installed xterm, when run it I get xterm: cannot load font '-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso10646-1. I've been researching this for a couple of hours, I've downloaded the missing font, I'm not sure where to place it though.

Does anyone know which folder xterm is looking in for fonts?

Adding the missing font did not resolve this. I resolved it by installing xfonts-base, then un & re-installing xterm. That took care of it, now xterm is working.

  • FYI, all I had to do was load said xfonts-base package, then log out and log back in (restarting X, I presume...)
