Connecting with X-win problem
Hello all,

I am trying to connect to my Solaris 8 system with X-win. However, when i try to connect, a black screen comes up, then closes up immediatley.

I have checked /var/dt/Xerrors, and I am getting the folllowing:

Code:
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
Warning: Cannot convert string "-dt-interface system-medium-r-normal-l*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*" to type FontSet
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
Warning: Unable to load any usable fontset
Warning: 
    Name: FONTLIST_DEFAULT_TAG_STRING
    Class: XmRendition
    Conversion failed.  Cannot load font.

any ideas?

thanks beforehand,
drag
