Typically a difference in the fontpath. Try `xset -q` for both displays (`xset -q -display :0` and `xset -q -display :1`) and see the difference. On the fly, you can use xset to update the fontpath of the bad-behaving display to that of the well-behaving. Check manpages on xset `man xset` for details. Once you have a decent fontpath, give it to `Xvnc` with the `-fp` option. Details: Be sure the path is accessible for both Xservers: readable by the account that actually runs Xvnc and on the same machine. > > I've triple checked the fontpath, and I do not think that's the > problem (it's the same as the console Xserver). If the fontpath is a bunch of directories, the account that runs Xvnc cannot read one (or more) of them If the fontpath is a fontserver, check the firewall and such if it is also accessible for others than the default. > > How can I start to troubleshoot this problem?

I do know xconsole can display on any Xserver. Equivalents are almost every terminal emulator, most have a "-C" option, to try to capture the console messages: `xterm -C`. Be warned, there is only one console device (/dev/console) on every machine. Most times, only the user logged in at the graphical console can access the device (check the rights of /dev/console or the device it is softlinked to). > > How can I determine what font is being requested by this Motif > application? ... I don't know but I do know there is a lot of documentation on fonts.
