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.
