After installing Mma3 under Unix (Irix and Solaris) I keep getting annoying messages from the Front End like: The front end could not locate a CharacterEncoding file for the requested encoding (50-ibm-850). This message occurs right after start-up and takes a long time to finish, because the whole font repository is searched. Similar messages appear e.g. while browsing the Mathbook (with different numbers: 93-ibm-850, 69-ibm-850 ...). What is going on there, and what can be done about it? Thank you for your answers.
