No font complaints, but it evidently won't run with the "standard VGA"
display driver. /tmp/XWin.log says:
winInitializeDefaultScreens () - w 640 h 480
_XSERVTransmkdir: Owner of /tmp/.X11-unix should be set to root
winDetectSupportedEngines () - Windows 95/98/Me
winDetectSupportedEngines () - DirectDraw not installed
winSetEngine () - Using Shadow GDI DIB
winAdjustVideoModeShadowGDI () - Using Windows display depth of 1 bits per pixel
winScreenInit () - Unsupported display depth: 1
Change your Windows display depth to 15, 16, 24, or 32 bits per pixel.
winScreenInit () - Supported depths: 8080c080
Fatal server error:
Couldn't add screen 0
but the only choices available in display properties are 16-color
(selected) and monochrome. Time to drag out the Win 95 CD and see
what might work with a Trident TGUI9440-3
