Changing fonts

Running the font server from system startup files

You can enable the font server to start whenever the system enters multiuser mode. This is useful if you want to run the font server on a system that will not be running the Graphical Environment. Follow these steps:

Log in as root.
Enter this command:

fontserv enable

The next time the system enters multiuser mode, the font server is automatically started.
If you want to start the font server immediately, enter this command:

fontserv start

The fontserv enable creates the file /etc/rc2.d/S91fontserv, which is a script that starts the font server when the system enters multiuser mode.
