It shouldn't dump core...

However, it may well be you don't have the vga font.  You'll need to
get the BOCHS package from ftp://ftp.bochs.com/ (IIRC) and extract font/vga.pcf
from it.  su to root, and then:

   cp vga.pcf <X11path>/fonts/misc
   compress <X11path>/fonts/misc/vga.pcf
   mkfontdir <X11path>/fonts/misc
   xset fp rehash

<X11path> was /var/lib/X11 on my IRIX6.2 box; IIRC it is /usr/X11R6/lib/X11
on linux.

Ulrich/Kevin, shouldn't we create a freemware/misc directory to store
miscellaneous files like these in ?
