3695.0. "DECwindows V3 display on ULTRIX workstation?" by OSL10::OLAV (Do it in parallel!) Tue Nov 20 1990 07:20

After installing the DECwindows V3 FT software, people running remote FileView
displaying on ULTRIX workstations (V3.x of ULTRIX) have various problems with
the fonts. The fonts displayed on the ULTRIX workstation is *very* large and
messes up the applications. What have to be done to fix this? Is this a known
interoperatibility problem with DECwindows V3 and ULTRIX (X11 R3)?

3695.1	Look closely at the fonts on the workstation	STAR::VATNE	Peter Vatne, VMS Development	`Tue Nov 20 1990 10:53`	8
	UWS shold have all the right fonts to make FileView work correctly. We have not heard of any interoperability problems before. Are you definitely running UWS and not a vanilla MIT X11 R3 system? Make sure there is nothing funny going on with font aliases. Try doing an XLSFONTS to see what you have for terminal fonts.

	I've been displaying various combinations of ULTRIX Motif V1.1 and DECwindow V3 IFT on UWS 4.1 and UWS 4.2-3.1 without a problem.
