XFT fonts [was: build failure on Ubuntu 12.04.1]

I'm still trying to get a working, current XEmacs on Ubuntu (first time using this distro). XFT support is a key feature for me - if I'm going to look at a screen full of code all day, it better look nice! I configured --with-xft, installed a whole bunch of fonts, but none of them seem to be available, either via the command-line "-font" flag, or through the options menu. In fact the Options/Font menu shows lots and lots of fonts, but they are all greyed out ... screen shot here - http://cgw.placeholderdomains.net/xemacs-font-menu.png All of the font names are similarly greyed-out, but the two radio buttons for "DejaVu Sans Mono" are selected. This is running with '-q' and no X resources. Any clue what I'm doing wrong here? Thanks! _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
