Hi Stan,

The issue with ICC is that the process crashes when the fonts can not be
found. This is a known issue with exceed 7 and up ReflexionX (which you seem
to have solved) and many other Xserver packages.
A test can be done with system management. When this application shows the
correct fonts (compared to DM/Foxview native screens) ICC should work too.
If it does not, the ICC is a no go.
The trick would be to tell GoGlobal and the likes where to find the Foxboro
fonts. We had no luck with packages like exceed on demand etc but VNC should
work to my knowledge.

Could someone please explain what the issue with the ICC is? My boss was
showing me a CAR about it's not working with GoGlobal. It works fine here
using ReflectionsX. 

Is this somehow related to the "remote draw" issue? I still do not
understand what that is all about. As far as I know an X client should not
even be able to tell if the server is running on the local machine or not.
This should be totally transparent to the client application, and has always
seemed so for me.

Is it possible to start the ICC from a shell command prompt? If so, I can
easily test this.
