I just installed RH4 on my IBM Thinkpad 755C. It works great except...
When I run netcfg or glint I got the following err msg:

Can someone help me out here? Thanks. It seemed I need some kind of fonts
which does not come with RH4.0.

BTW, has anyone successfully configure the sound support and IBM DOCK II (with
a SCSI CD-ROM) support on IBM Thinkpad 755C?  I managed to configure my X
server on the 755C. I am willing to share my experience. 

Thanks, Ted
