Re: fonts

I tried this but it changed nothing.
My install of Tiger was on a clean disk and the install
disk had 1.1 on it.  

(When I was using Panther I had so much trouble with
Mac's X11 that I deleted the whole thing and used Fink's.
All went well.  However, with the new install I thought
I'd give Mac's X11 a try again.  The quartz window manager
is a little bit better integrated.  I was about to delete
again when I found the "use ssh -Y" hint from a few months
back  (I went and skimmed through all the old emails)).
