Hello, I think the problem with the colours might be the colour depth. You should set it to 8bpp. Also I think you have to run it fullscreen or it takes your win32 default colour depth. I use cygwin and Xwin and use this command, it should be similar, XWin -fullscreen -depth 8 -query foxbox For the fonts, the easiest way for DM is to copy /usr/fox/wp/fonts to your machine and add the path when calling xfree86. Or try using xset before calling XWin, XWin -fullscreen -depth 8 fp+ /usr/foxboro/fonts -query foxbox or xset +fp /usr/foxboro/fonts XWin -fullscreen -depth 8 -query foxbox If you are using Foxview, there are fonts under the openwindows directory you need, can't remember which ones at the moment. Or you could set up a font server and add that to your fontpath. Hope this helps.

I have already installed, but, the colors are bad. With exceed the fix was enable pseudocolor, but I do not know what can I do in the xfree. I think that I will have problems with the fonts too. Someone has experience with the xfree? What can I do ? Pedro I.
