I am a Solaris guy, but run CDE sessions on Sun. If this is VNC related the only thing I can think of is making sure you start your server with a correct fontpath and I use a font server on Sun as that was the only way to get the CDE fonts to display properly. The server start flag for Sun is: -fp tcp/localhost:7100. You will need to make sure you have the fs service running and see what port Tru64 runs it on for your installation.
If that is *NOT* the problem or does not fix it there could be a problem with your Xsession running a non-standard code page or language. To test, you can try displaying an Xterm or other suitable application (like XEV) on the VNC display from your console display. If you *ARE* serving out fonts properly and the problem goes away then the problem is with session variables in the Xsession. If you are still hosed, then the problem is probably happening in the VNC server. Good Luck...
