Greetings,
I'm trying to figure out for sure whether the inclusion of freetype has been deprecated in xorg.conf. In the handbook it recommends the inclusion of this module in the configuration file, but I get the following error message in my /var/log/Xorg.0.log file:
Here is what I'm running now also:
And here is the portion of my xorg.conf file that is loading this module:
I've also checked out the x.org/wiki and don't get any hits there when I search for freetype.
The issue appears to be cosmetic as X and Gnome seem to work fine and I've found a few references in other non-FreeBSD forums of the command no longer being needed. I was just confused because the handbook recommended it's inclusion and it doesn't appear to work.
If there is anything else that I need to provide let me know. This is my first post to this forum so please be patient with me ;-)
