Does anyone know how to make the Visual 640 X terminal get its fonts
through NFS?  The documentation is, well, lacking.  I've gone through
the setup menus and told it to use NFS, given it a host to use, given
it a font path, and added the terminal's hostname to /etc/exports on
the appropriate host.

If I try xlsfonts after doing this, I get something like:

NFS error on server mentor.cc.purdue.edu: /usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/: Permission denied
NFS error on server: /usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/: Not connected

in the error message window.

Has anyone gotten this to work?  (My firmware is dated Nov 23 1988, if
that matters)

Thanks.
