SuSE Linux 7.3, Mathematica 4.1 Right after the initial splash screen, I get a "startup warning", where all of the characters in the actual warning appear as small boxes... If I select the one that promises to be "ok", mathematica starts, but almost every character on the display is one of those little square boxes.. I've tried adding the mathematica fonts to the /etc/XF86Config file, like this: FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/xtest" FontPath "/usr/local/mathematica/SystemFiles/Fonts/X/" FontPath "/usr/local/mathematica/SystemFiles/Fonts/Type1/" FontPath "/usr/local/mathematica/SystemFiles/Fonts/AFM/" ModulePath "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules" and it doesn't help... reinstalled, rebooted, no luck.... X display of mathematica from another working machine does exactly the same thing.... the little boxes display instead of readable characters... Nothing in my .Xdefaults file, have also tried using kde and mwm... same result with both window managers.. Didn't see anything useful at support.wolfram.com either.... Stumped..., puzzled... Thanks in advance for any help on this one ! Mike
