Hello. I just got my RedHat 4.0 cdrom! Yeah... I had the majority 
installed previously via NFS. I recently got XFree86 working... My 
question is (since I installed X by hand), I seem to be missing some 
fonts in order to run control-panel or glint. What is the proper order 
of things to install to get X, control-panel and glint happy?  I really 
don't want to use the install programs as I've gotten everything 
working nicely to this point w/o using the cdrom yet.

I just got X running today, but I'm missing a few things I presume I 
need for glint and control-panel to work proper. Like Adobe-Helvetica-
Bold-R-Normal for control-panel, and where might that illustrious font 
be hiding? perhaps a silly little rpm that is not so nicely named? And 
the wonderful glint appears to need that font too. I though I had 
installed everything that said *font*.rpm at all. Can anyone help me 
with this? I'm thinking thats the only thing I'm missing but I won't 
know until I install that font.

Darron
