Hi, I've been struggling with this for a while....
I have an application that runs on a Fedora 7 server. The OS and app is
supplied and customized by the vendor. The application runs in either a
terminal or X windows session based on what it detects is calling it.
We can run the application on a windows box by using xming-mesa and
xming-fonts. The font display there is fine.
I got it to run on a Ubuntu EEE Box over SSH using X11 forwarding. It
opens, but the fonts look terrible. It looks like it's a resized version
of a smaller font.
I went through and installed a bunch of fonts on Ubuntu to no avail. I
also attempted to find out what fonts were a part of xming-fonts. I also
called the vendor support, which of course was no help at all.
How can I find out exactly which fonts are in use with the app? I tried
lsof, but wasn't able to pinpoint the file/files. The app is proprietary
and I do not have source code.
