I'm having a bit of a problem with Netscape Communicator 4.05 and XFree86
on RedHat 5.0. Frequently, I get a largbe popup window (containing output
from stderr I believe) that says:

Warning:
   Name: Text
   Class: XmTextField
   Character 'h' not supported in font. Discarded.

Warning:
   Name: Text
   Class: XmTextField
   Character 't' not supported in font. Discarded.

Warning:
   Name: Text
   Class: XmTextField
   Character 't' not supported in font. Discarded.

Warning:
   Name: Text
   Class: XmTextField
   Character 'p' not supported in font. Discarded.

etc.

>From this, I can deduce that the Motif text widget used to display the
Location field is having some severe problems. I noted on Netscape's help
site that this is a "bug in some versions of the OpenWindows X Server" but
somehow I don't think this applies to Linux.

My question is this: has anyone else encountered this problem and managed
to solve it? I've tried playing around with the ordering of my FontPaths as
suggested in the Netscape help file, but with no success. My font config is
listed below.

    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/URW"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc"

Thanks in advance for the help,
Brian
