[arch-general] twm: cannot open fontset
Hello listmates, Here is a problem i encountered: twm doesn't start...i got this message instead: /usr/bin/twm: unable to open fontset <anyfont> I tried almost all the fonts xfontsel showed me, including "fixed", "terminal", "terminus", but with no success... But when i changed my $LANG from en_US.utf8 to C, twm worked! I tried to start twm into my friends pc (archlinux x64 also) and it worked right away (LANG=en_US.utf8) Searched Google and Archlinux forums, but seems like i'm the only person who have this problem (or bother with twm :P) I'd like to log in to twm, without having to change $LANG variable (as the normal behaviour is)...Can someone help me here? PS. I attached my xorg.conf, in case it matters...

Yes. (The command is locale-gen,right?)
