After installing some new fonts, I ran cacheAFMData like I was told to in some readme or other...a few second later everything got ugly. Workspace came up with an error along the lines of "Internal error -3007, Continue at your own risk or log out" I continued, things were ok, till I tried to do anything involving fonts...there were also a few pages of errors in the messages file along the lines of: Dec 21 08:02:59 shrug WM[185]: App Kit: Pasteboard Mach messaging error #-102, i n (null pointer) Dec 21 08:03:11 shrug Mail[2003]: App Kit: Pasteboard Mach messaging error #-102 , in _NXGetSession Dec 21 08:03:38 shrug Edit[2175]: App Kit: Pasteboard Mach messaging error #-203 , in (null pointer) I eventually had to reboot, as logging out and back in had no effect on the problem. This is running 3.0 on a NSC (!T).
