Install PCF font on Ubuntu
Copy the font files to a directory that is visible to the x-server'sFont Path. You may check the font path of the running server by
typing the command:
xset q
On my FreeBSD machine I chose /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/ to hold
these new fonts. Next, you need to update the index file 'fonts.dir'
by running 'mkfontdir'. Here's the command I used for my path:
mkfontdir /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/
If you don't want to restart your X server, you can update your
current X session using:
xset fp rehash
Otherwise restarting X will also load the new fonts. That's it, you're done.
=== Addendum ===
At least for Ubuntu Linux you need an extra step.
You must also add the font path using "xset fp+".
Here's a shell script that does the job:
#!/bin/sh
# rebuild font.dir file
mkfontdir ~/.fonts
# add .fonts to font path
xset fp+ ~/.fonts
# tell X to reread fonts
xset fp rehash
sudo rm /etc/fonts/conf.d/70-no-bitmaps.conf
