From: "Aaron M. Ucko" <amu@MIT.EDU>

System name:		alice-whacker.mit.edu
Type and version:	i686 8.3.30
Display type:		

Shell:			/bin/sh (/bin/bash?)
Window manager:		fvwm2m4

What were you trying to do?
	Run some X applications that wanted slightly unusual fonts

What's wrong:
	They ended up using (ugly) rescaled misc fonts because X is
	configured to use a local font server and the catalog in
	/etc/X11/fs/config includes /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
	without :unscaled.

What should have happened:
	I should have seen less ugly fonts.  (That entry should not
	have been there.)

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	xfs(1)
