The font paths are mostly hardcoded into nx-libs (NX agent, to be precise). I am not sure if x2go is setting them explicitly but I doubt it. Have to check.

Adding another font path to nx-libs is no big deal but I agree that x2go could/should also do this.

So may I ask you to open a bug report at GitHub.com arcticaproject nx-libs?

Thanks,

Uli

Hi,

after setting up a new remote x2go instance (using Devuan) I noticed
that xterm complained

xterm: cannot load font
"-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso10646-1"

I traced the issue to the font path (displayed with xset q) missing
/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc, so I added it with

xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc

and things started behaving normally again. - But: Where is the font path
in x2go actually being set? I'm not sure if some autoconfiguration
failed, or if it's a compile time issue, or something else. - For the
same issue there's a bug report in Ubuntu, see

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/x2goserver/+bug/1891825

and especially the remark about the man page at the end.

Hanno
