Dear all!
I would like to use twm. As described in wiki [1] I'm typing xinit
-e /usr/bin/twm in runlevel 3 to fire it up. It tries to start and first
window titled 'LOGIN' appears at the left up corner of the screen.
However it never asks me for username/passwd. It only states few times
this warning:
/usr/bin/twm: warning: font for charset ISO8859-13 is lacking
And does nothing more. It doesn't hangs. i.e. it activates on mouse over
and I can fold/unfold it.
Here's the list of installed fonts:
rpm -qa | grep xorg-x11-fonts
xorg-x11-fonts-100dpi-7.5-3.fc15.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi-7.5-3.fc15.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-9-75dpi-7.5-3.fc15.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-2-75dpi-7.5-3.fc15.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi-7.5-3.fc15.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-9-100dpi-7.5-3.fc15.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-misc-7.5-3.fc15.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-15-75dpi-7.5-3.fc15.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-14-100dpi-7.5-3.fc15.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-ethiopic-7.5-3.fc15.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-Type1-7.5-3.fc15.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-2-100dpi-7.5-3.fc15.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-cyrillic-7.5-3.fc15.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-75dpi-7.5-3.fc15.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-14-75dpi-7.5-3.fc15.noarch
xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-15-100dpi-7.5-3.fc15.noarch

I can't find ISO8859-13 fonts anywhere. What should I do?
.twmrc seems to be missing on my system (I can't locate it).
TIA
