You may want to try chkfontpath to see how it compares to mine.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# chkfontpath -l Current directories in font path: 1: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled 2: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled 3: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled 4: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc 5: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 6: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo 7: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic 8: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF 9: /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1 10: 11: /usr/share/AbiSuite/fonts
Looks kosher. Seems that the error that is getting dumped is:
The font "-b&h-lucida-bold-r-normal-*-*-140-*-*-*-*-iso8559-*" does not support all the required character sets for the current locale "en_US.UTF.8"
OK, getting closer. Looks like the perms on /dev/ptys* were horked badly. chmod 666 /dev/ptys* fixed it, but now i'm getting
aterm: can't open slave tty /dev/ttys0
when trying to start an aterm, and:
xterm: Error 18, errno 13: Permission denied
Reason: spawn: open() failed on ptsname
when trying to spawn an xterm. this is RH9, there is no devfs (which seems to be the most common cause of this problem). any takers?
