The problem persists - I even tried to re-install all of cygwin/xfree86 including the Xfscl package, and the problem persists. Here are the details:
I have set up xdmcp on my linux box and I connect with my PC running Cygwin/xfree86. I connect fine to the linux box, and applications that use standard 75dpi and 100dpi fonts run fine, but Abiword apparently use Type 1 fonts, and complains that it cannot find the Times Roman fonts, and then Abiword crashes. I can see that the fonts are presnt on my Cygwin/xfree86 PC, so why can't Abiword find them? Lars.
