    At the high school where I work we have a Linux Server running RedHat
    7.3 and the Linux Terminal Server Project (LTSP) mods. The server runs
    twenty NIC thin clients which are used by the students. The version of
    AbiWord is the one which comes with RedHat 7.3 (sorry, I'm writing from
    home now) and it is the default install.

    The problem is that AbiWord seems to work just fine on the monitor
    that's connected to the server. However, when I try to run it on one of
    the thin clients I get an error message (twice) telling me that AbiWord
    can't find the Times Roman font, then the program crashes.

    I've tried the fix the error message reccomends, which is to add "Load
    "type1"" to the XF86Config file in /etc/X11, but this doesn't seem to
    make any difference.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance for the help,

    Alex
