hello

woody -- 2.4.17 customized for acpi - gnome2 - gdm2

i recently upgraded to gnome2 and things were fine except that my fonts
were smudgy. the font-HOWTO i was reading mentioned that certain apps
like netscape can do better rendering if they can access microsoft font
package. thats what i did. i found out from somewhere that the font
package was called msttcorefonts and installed it with apt-get. debian
configurator lead me through installing various msft fonts and then i
restarted xfs and gdm. thats when i the problem started. i no longer
have a display! :(

looking at the log files dint help much. maybe someone can read between
the lines. am including the entire content on these links:

http://csce.unl.edu/~pkallaku/pub/general/XF86Config-4

someone pl get my display back!!

thanks

praveen
