This means that you need to download vga.pcf.gz (look it up at google
or write directly to me and i will send the file to you) and install
it under the misc directory of your X fonts. The path varies from
distro to distro.

With proper fonts installed the appearance changes and become "better".

Under Ubuntu the font is installed in the folder
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc. In
case you want to run it thru client it has to be placed in
/opt/ltsp/i386/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc. Then you may also have to
run the commands

mkfontdir
xset fp rehash

It has been a while since I did this (the applications keep running
just fine and have not had any reason to tweak). If you need more
input I can do so from office Monday. With screen shots maybe.
