I'm not sure if this is a good solution or not, but I thought I'd
mention it just in case. I have this in my ~/.startup.X file:
# RS/6000 uses different default fonts
if ($HOSTTYPE == "rsaix") then
xset fp default
endif
This gives me the standard fonts found on other platforms, and allows
room for two side-by-side xterms.
