WebTerm X Frequently Asked Questions

What does "Could not open default text font 'fixed'" mean?

The WebTerm X error message Could not open default text font 'Fixed'" indicates that WebTerm X was unable to read its fonts.  Possible causes include:

1.  You are using the superseded 1.0 version of WebTerm X in with a Windows NT 4.0's NTFS compressed volume.  WebTerm X 1.0 was designed to work a disk with the fat 16 file system.  Uncompress the fonts folder and restarting WebTerm X should resolve the problem.  Also, you can upgrade from ve4rsion 1.0 to version 2.0.2 at no additional cost at:

2.  The fonts index has become corrupt.  Delete the fonts.dir files in the font folder and restart WebTerm X and it will attempt to re-index the fonts.

3.  WebTerm X can not find its fonts because they are not in the /xserver/fonts folder.  Re-install the fonts.
