Windowlab from staging and font problems...

When I try loading up windowlab, from a package from the staging repository, I get an error about lucidasans-10 not being available, and if I try the -font option I know not how to name to fonts, everything I try gives me an error.  If anyone else out there who uses this wonderful WM know how the -font option works or how to make it use the default font (which I do have installed), I would greatly apreciate the help.

Does the WM still load, or does it fail completely? There's no font file in the Windowlab source, and it runs fine on my machine.

Also, for packages in the TURs, please mail the TUR mailing list as well. It's luck that I came across this thread.

Ah, nope, it fails to load cmpletely with an error that lucidasana-10 isn't found.  As for the TUR mailing lists I never even thought of that, I guess I'll give that a try.

Here's what I'm getting when I start blackbox... but at least it still loads and runs ok.
