The fonts listed in the error message are not standard X server fonts;
they're in a format supported by the Sun server (Folio F3, to be exact). In
my Solaris installation, they are in /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/F3bitmaps.
You can solve this two ways:
* run a Sun-supplied font server and point the VNC server at it (-fp
hostname/tcp:port)
* better: do not use them in your application
The '%d' in the name looks even more peculiar - no font at all has that as
part of the name.
The '_Key_Cancel' & so forth are specific Sun keyboard keys. The VNC server
has a generic virtual keyboard to start out with, although you can bind
keysyms to arbitrary key codes; IIRC it also dynamically binds non-generic
keys when you press them.
