Emacs 22.1 Compile with Ubuntu 7.04

Emacs 22.1 Compile with Ubuntu 7.04

[simaomm]

Hi,

I just compiled emacs with the following configure options:

./configure --with-gtk --enable-font-backend --with-xft

But when I run emacs I get:
./emacs
No fonts match `Monospace-8'

Here's my .Xresources:
Emacs.FontBackend: xft
Emacs.font: Monospace-8
Xft.dpi: 96
Xft.hinting: None

Thank you for your help.

Try running Emacs with `./emacs --enable-font-backend` and if that
fails try (in addition) a different font, maybe something like:

Emacs.font: DejaVu Sans Mono-10

You need to pass the "--enable-font-backend" both when you configure
and when you run the program.

Of those options, emacs-22.1 only supports --with-gtk.

Hi,

I just compiled emacs only with --with-gtk and I get the very same
error.

Thank you,

I think you didn't get what Jason means.
What you want (using "monospace" xft font) is a function only available
in emacs23

Hi,

I did tried with a different font and with --enable-font-backend but I
still get a similar error.

Thank you for your help.
