    Need help with font error "Cannot open 6x12 font"

    Hi all

    I'm running Windows 7 Pro 32-bit to access through ssh a RedHat Linux machine using the Cisco VPN client and Putty. I am trying to run x applications from the command window, but I get an error message that says "Cannot open 6x12 font." I am also using Xming to be able to connect to the x server. The x applications seem to run, but they will not give any figures or charts that the Linux machine alone will give me.

    Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    I believe the problem is solved. I neglected to download the font file as well. It can be found here:
