No, it doesn't unfortunately. The exact error message that pops up
(running mathematica 5.1) in a dialog box is
"Unable to find font with family Mathematica1, weight Plain, slant
Plain, and size 12. Substituting Courier."
and additional error messages on the terminal (stderr):
$ mathematica
xset: bad font path element (#23), possible causes are:
Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions
Directory missing fonts.dir
Incorrect font server address or syntax
I'm accessing the remove server using "slogin -X remote.host". As I
understand it the -X option with slogin is supposed to allow remote X
functionality. The application is otherwise working OK, that is normal
text reads fine, but the mathematical symbols palette is certainly
corrupted (showing empty squares instead of integral symbols, etc.). By
way of contrast, Maple works normally.

I'll certainly give it a go!

OK.
Best regards, Drew.
