Subject: FontStruct error when starting emacs
Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2004 14:34:17 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1103204057.3435.2.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

Hi,

I am currently using Debian sid distro with 2.9.1 kernel.. I have this
problem with emacs, which is that when i start emacs, all the characters
in the screen and on the menus of emcas appear as empty rectangles. On
the terminal window i get this error message:

Warning: Cannot convert string
"-*-helvetica-medium-r-*--*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1" to type FontStruct

how can i fix this issue? 

Thanks, and best regards
