           Summary: Xnest cannot find default fixed font and then aborts
           Product: xorg
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Server/Xnest
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: nick.allen at onlinehome.de


Xnest used top work fine but now I am using the xorg version Xnest complains 
with the following message: 
 
Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/, removing from 
list! 
 
Fatal server error: 
could not open default font 'fixed' 
 
and then immediately aborts. I have tried using the -fp command line option and 
then specifying the fontserver as my main X11 display uses a font server but 
this also fails with the same message.
