YES!!!!!!! Starting an x-font server solved the problem!!!! I used xfs, X11 standard fontserver. I started xfs as a daemon Then I put the following in my xstartup: xset fp= tcp/localhost:7100 xset rehash Then I started the vnc session, and did everything I was supposed to do and it worked. It looks as VNC doesn't interupt the fontserver, so now the fonts shows correct! Thanks to all who helped, your help led me the right way into the solution! // Walter ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cruz Walter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "Jeff Boerio" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >; "James Weatherall" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Monday, October 25, 2004 1:08 PM Subject: @SPAM+++ SV: SV: Fonts not showing right under VNC

If the machine is running xfs (X font server), then it could be one way. If not, it could be the other. Wez has some a good suggestion - confirming how X11 is configured for the console logins on that machine. > > You will likely need to change how the vncserver script uses the -fp option. If you're using xfs, it will likely be "-fp unix/:7100". If not, you will need to add font directories (and the trailing /) to the -fp line in the vncserver script. > > - Jeff > _______________________________________________ > VNC-List mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To remove yourself from the list visit: > http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list <http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list> _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
