XErrors Displaying Certain Apps from Sun server

[johnnyr028]

I am running into problems displaying certain applications from a Solaris 8 server to my FC3 desktop

When I ssh to the server and run the application, I am getting the following errors :

XView warning: Cannot load font '-b&h-lucida-medium-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*' (Font package)
XView warning: Cannot load font '-b&h-lucida-medium-r-normal-sans-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*' (Font package)
XView error: Cannot open connection to window server: localhost:12.0 (Server package)

In the same connection, if I try to run /usr/dt/bin/dtterm or a simple xterm, the display comes up fine.

Searching the forum I found similar posts, but the solutions offered in them have not seemed to help. I have tried opening the ssh connection using the -X option and setting the display to the proper ip address[not sure if that works with ssh]

The apps in question work fine in solaris and also when I ssh to the server using putty and exceed in windows.

Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.

Haven't found anything new out to fix this on FC3.

I just tried the test release FC4test1 and the problem does not occur. The application displays fine.

Not sure what is different.

I will investigate to try and see what is different. Hopefully it will continue to work to through to the final release
