Like another user, I had difficulty getting X to fire up.
After setting LANG=en_US.UTF-8 I got farther, but these issues
remain:

Each xterm, xemacs, and xclock I start outputs this:

Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion

I also get a series of:

twm: warning: font for charset XXX is lacking.

Where XXX is replaced by each of these in turn:

JISX0208.1983-0
KSC5601.1987-0
GB2312.1980-0

Those three lines repeat 6 times.

Also:

1) the whole deal takes noticeably longer to start
2) xemacs does not receive its normal geometry from .Xdefaults
3) each xterm started from .xinitrc has a blank line
    before the initial bash prompt, that wasn't present before

For the moment it looks wiser for me to revert to 62. I was
trying to get past an rsync problem, that I may report in
another email if I can't resolve it ...

Thanks -- Eliot Moss
