Hi,
my main terminal emulator font is terminus. Unfortunately it lacks quite a lot of characters, so I searched for an addition and found code200[012].
I copied the .ttf files to ~/.fonts.
Code: | $ fc-list | grep -i code
/home/ahuemer/.fonts/CODE2002.TTF: Code2002:style=Regular,Normal,obyčejné,Standard,Κανονικά,Normaali,Normál,Normale,Standaard,Normalny,Обычный,Normalan,Normálne,Navadno,thường,Arrunta
/home/ahuemer/.fonts/CODE2000.TTF: Code2000:style=Regular,Normal,obyčejné,Standard,Κανονικά,Normaali,Normál,Normale,Standaard,Normalny,Обычный,Normalan,Normálne,Navadno,thường,Arrunta
/home/ahuemer/.fonts/CODE2001.TTF: Code2001:style=Regular,Normal,obyčejné,Standard,Κανονικά,Normaali,Normál,Normale,Standaard,Normalny,Обычный,Normalan,Normálne,Navadno,thường,Arrunta |
Then I tried to run urxvt with just code2000 as normal font but didn't succeed.
Code: | $ urxvt -fn "xft:Code2000"
urxvt: unable to load base fontset, please specify a valid one using -fn, aborting. |
Unfortunately I have no idea what I could try.
Any hints welcome.
Thanks in advance. |

what kind of letters are you missing? because I have the same problems, and I think its not the font, but urxvt!
I have tried these fonts:
Code: | % cat .Xdefaults
URxvt*background: #000
URxvt*foreground: #f2f2f2
URxvt*fading: 30
URxvt*scrollColor: gray30
URxvt*troughColor: gray0
URxvt*saveLines: 3000
URxvt*cursorBlink: true
URxvt*scrollstyle: plain
URxvt*scrollTtyOutput: false
URxvt*scrollWithBuffer: true
URxvt*scrollTtyKeypress: true
URxvt*visualBell: false
URxvt*mapAlert: true
#URxvt*font: xft:Fixed:pixelsize=14:rgba=vrgb:antialias=true
#URxvt*font: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:rgba=vrgb:antialias=true:pixelsize=15
#URxvt*font: xft:Lomonosov V:pixelsize=12
#URxvt*font: xft:Luxi Mono:pixelsize=12
URxvt*font: xft:DejaVu Sans Mono:style=Book:pixelsize=15:antialias=true:rgba=vrgb
#URxvt*font: -misc-fixed-*-*-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

currently I am using "Fixed" and I cannot imagine, that Fixed does not even has German umlauts.
for the record:
Code: | % eix rxvt-uni

check out:
Code: | LC_ALL=en_US.utf8 urxvt |
works for me. I guess I have to check my language settings. _________________ The adopt an unanswered post initiative |

I had a similar problem with the locale en_DK, which wasn't supported by libX11,
