VNC 3.3.4
Solaris 2.8
I have configured vnc to run with the twm window manager. I now wish to use
the dtwm window manager.
the $HOME/.dt/errorlog reports the following when dtwm starts.
Wed Jan 22 15:18:49 2003
Workspace Manager: failed to load font: }a:~uU}pBh
I checked the vncserver script and then uncommented out the following line.
$cmd .= " -fp
/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/";
Restarted the vncserver and the same dtwm error message was reported.
Checked google, newsgroups and did a xset -q on the console which runs dtwm
just fine.
Changed the fontpath parameter in the vncserver script to the following:
$cmd .= " -
fp
/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/F3/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/F3bitmaps/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/,/usr/openwin/lib/locale/iso_8859_15/X11/fonts/TrueType,tcp/localhost:7100";
Restarted vncserver and it fails. Check the vnc log file and the following
is reported.
failed to set default font path
'/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/F3/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/F3bitmaps/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/,/usr/openwin/lib/locale/iso_8859_15/X11/fonts/TrueType,tcp/localhost:7100";
'
Fatal server error:
could not open default font 'fixed'
xsetroot: unable to open display 'sun2:2'
Tried various combinations of directories in the fontpath but the same
effect occurs:
either
vncserver won't start because font directories other than misc and 75dpi
added to the fontpath cause the fixed font to be not opened.
or
once the vncserver does start the dtwm window manager will no start.
I'm going around in circles here, any help would be appreciated.
Thx
