Xsun does (unfortunately) not know about gzipped fonts. The easy fix is to set up a local X font server (xfs), and start Xsun with '-fp tcp/localhost:7100' >These are the packages currently installed. >ii xslibg 3.3.1-2.2 Statically linked versions of the libraries You don't need xslibg if you're not doing any development (and hardly even if you are). It's only use is to create statically linked X clients. >While traking down the first error I noticed that >xkbcomp xkbprint xkbvleds xkbwatch all Segmentation fault. They may need to be recompiled with the new libc...

Xsun knows how to figure out all the things that can change on a sparc on demand (including keyboard layout, as long as you want the one that matches the keyboard). Though it would be nice if there was someplace one could keep the font path... /Anders -- -- Of course I'm crazy, but that doesn't mean I'm wrong.
