I'm not able to remote login from a DEC 5000/240, (Ultrix 4.2A) to a Sun Sparc (Solaris 2.4) and set the display to the DEC - applications that use the default Sun fonts are not able to run when the display is set to the DEC. I get the following error: XView warning: Cannot load font set '-b&h-lucida-medium-r-normal-sans-*-120-*-*-*-*-*- *' (Font package) XView warning: Unable to open default font set Other applications, such as xterm which do not use these fonts run fine. Do I need to actually install certain fonts on the DEC, or is there some way to alias these troublesome fonts to fonts that exist on the DEC? Any pointers to the procedure for installing new fonts and/or ftp sites that might have the needed fonts would be much appreciated.
