Hi folks: I heard about xtrek from a friend of mine, found it using gopher, downloaded it, modified the make files, and tried to compile it. I get the following error: make install install -c xtrekd /home/vanguard/games/bin install -c xtrek /home/vanguard/games/bin install xtrek.snf /home/vanguard/games/fonts/x11 install: xtrek.snf: No such file or directory *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `install' I do not know what I am doing wrong. Apparently, xtrek.snf is some kind of font file, but I don't know why it isn't being created. Would someone be willing to take a look at my Imakefile, etc. to try to spot the error? Further, I tried using a dummy file for xtrek.snf, which got me past that point in the compile, then tried entering the font information in my .Xdefaults file as shown in the README file. Now, xtrekd seems to start up fine, but xtrek gives the following error: xtrek midnight Display: midnight:0.0 Login: vanguard Name: vanguard Adding player 0 on `midnight:0.0'. Not all fonts available on midnight:0.0. X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operati on) Major opcode of failed request: 51 (X_SetFontPath) Value in failed request: 0x4 Serial number of failed request: 4 Current serial number in output stream: 6 Warning: I am not the system administrator, just a user. I was just setting up xtrek in my directory. If there's something that requires root permission, that could explain the error. Thank you for your time.
