Hi John, folks,
I finally solved the Java-fonts-not-found-via-remote-XServer problem
using a combination of xlsfonts and sed to get a tailor-made
font.properties for my Xserver setup.
I figure the jdk will change again and the font.properties will change
again as well, so this will either pretty much always be a problem, or
sun will change their font implementation again and introduce different
annoyances.
I'm thinking of cobbling together an automatic configuration script that
will replace the fonts in font.properties with the most similar fonts
listed in the output of xlsfonts. Do you think this is worth doing, if
anyone else has already done something like this? It might even be worth
hacking up java to do this on the fly when it detects that it's being
run with a remote display.
