Use the command xterm -fn “font” to try some of these fonts: 12×24romankana -adobe-utopia-bold* lucidasanstypewriter-bold-18 The X server maintains a list of font locations in what is called the font path. When you display a list of fonts or choose particular fonts to assign as resources, the font path is checked to determine whether the font exists. Font path is similar to the shell PATH, which searches for commands by checking a list of directories, using the order in which they appear in the PATH. Likewise, X checks for a font using the order set by font path. To see the current font path, type xset -q| grep -i font. Changing X display resources Resources associated with your X server display affect the behavior of the mouse and keyboard, and can modify such things as the sounds and background of your desktop. There are several commands that are used to change and view the resources that are set for your display: xset Sets and displays a variety of resources associated with your X display. It can control sounds from the desktop, set the font path, change mouse parameters, change the screen saver, and set background color of the desktop. xmodmap Modifies how the keys on your keyboard and pointer buttons are mapped. It can also display existing key map and pointer map tables. xsetroot Sets parameters associated with your root window. You can change the cursor for the mouse pointer or set the background window to a color or bitmap image. xv Although xv can be used to capture and display images in a variety of formats, it can also be used to show an image as a background for your display. (The xv command does not come with the Red Hat Linux distribution, though it is available from Red Hat FTP sites as shareware.) Typically, you would try different values with these commands to find settings that look and behave the way you want. Then you could add these commands, with options, to your .xinitrc or .xsession files so that they are in effect each time you start the desktop. There are several attributes of your mouse, cursor, and keyboard mappings that you can change. You can speed your mouse motion. You can change what each mouse button does. You can assign a different cursor to the mouse pointer. You can modify annoying sounds. You can set the background of your display. You can set the idle time of your screen saver. Mouse speed To change the speed your mouse cursor travels in proportion to how far you move the mouse, change the acceleration value with the xset command. To set the m option to xset, enter a number to represent acceleration. You can also add a number, following the first one that represents a threshold. The movement of the cursor is the first number (acceleration) times the movement of the mouse (the distance the mouse is moved), after it passes the set threshold of pixels. (The reason for waiting for the threshold to be reached is so
