[Solved] Font problem when trying to start qmon (sun grid engine)

When I tried to start the qmon (queue monitor program), the error message show up as below:

[root@sge01 ~]# qmon

[root@sge01 ~]#

I have all the fonts from the official depository installed (verified by the command  # pacman -Ssq font ). I use LXDE and the system has been updated.

Is there anything I can do to run this program?

Re: [Solved] Font problem when trying to start qmon (sun grid engine)

Thanks for the link. I was able to solve the font errors quickly, which is great!

Unfortunately some other errors remain:

--
X Error of failed request:  BadName (named color or font does not exist)
  Major opcode of failed request:  45 (X_OpenFont)
  Serial number of failed request:  478
  Current serial number in output stream:  489

I've tried to follow instructions from the links below:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1778584
http://www.edaboard.com/thread139363.html

But realized I already have the xorg- 100dpi and 75dpi fonts by checking with the pacman command: pacman -Ssq 100dpi (and 75dpi).

Any help is greatly appreciated.

[Solved]

cd /usr/share/fonts/100dpi/
sudo mkfontdir
xset fp+ /usr/share/fonts/100dpi

To add the path permanently, add
FontPath /usr/share/fonts/100dpi
to ~/.xinitrc
