System name:		speaker-for-the-dead.mit.edu
Type and version:	Ultra-1 8.2.0
Display type:		ffb

What were you trying to do?
	log in


What went wrong?
	in the console I got:
13:23 Waiting for workstation to finish activating...Workstation activation failed to finish normally.
13:25 done.
13:25 XLogin: child 9078 exited
13:25 Athena Server (sun4) Version 8.2.0 Fri May  8 00:15:28 EDT 1998

and all zgrams were in funny fonts.


Yo, got any documentation, or other info?
I found the following suspicious file:
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root           0 May 26 01:46 /var/athena/attach_dev-sun4sys-82

logging out and back in failed to reproduce the activation messages.

The zephyr font problem went away when I re-took 8.2.0, so I'm willing
to chalk it up to a version skew problem.
