[SOLVED] can't find X11R6 folder

[rakeshk.r]

Hi, I am unable to access HDL designer tool through putty, I have this error

Error: Could not create FontSet for font '-adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal-*-*-* -*-*-*-*-*'.
The following character sets cannot be drawn with this font:
ISO8859-1

I found a similar problem and a solution was given to it in the below link :
https://www.edaboard.com/threads/1456/#post368966

I only had to create symlinks in my X11R6 Directory:

cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/
ln -s /usr/share/X11/XKeysymDB XKeysymDB
ln -s /usr/share/X11/locale/ locale

and it worked!

Now the problem is that, I can't find the X11R6 , what to do now and how to find it ? I can only see usr/share. Thank you.

If you don't have Super User permission then you can't change into /usr/lib/.....

ask your admin to correct these.

alternatively you can try to install the font into /usr/local/.... see the user guide of your instalation.

@bluehole Reinstalling the Xming fonts fixed the issue. Thank you.
